    Although it's not an aquarium, there was a lot to absorb; the tour taught our kid more about the sea life he'd just enjoyed. It’s hands-on, interactive, go-at-your-own pace learning and exploration. Read more

    NASA is involved in more than just space research and exploration. We focus on ocean science too! Take a trip out on the Marine Wildlife Cruise to get a look at the amazing world under the sea. Read more

    Love to sit out on the jetties during high tide and look out over the ocean, It's such a spiritual place for me.

    Small aquarium and museum. Neat when they have tall ships and the Marine Festival. Great for kids.

    Take your little ones to the touch tanks at the Ocean Institute, which are filled with a lot of amazing creatures for them to see and discover.
