This place rocks!!!
Brought my 3 year old nephew here, and though he had a hella good time, I had an even better time. What can I say that hasn't already been said?
We got there about 2:30 on a Tuesday and there was what looked to be a couple of school classrooms just leaving (Yay!) It was not the least bit crowded. We were able to take our time and take in everything there was to see and do. My nephew especially loved the play area, where he played with the boats, other toys and many "hands on" things that were there just for kids. He was so happy and awestruck looking at all of the different types of sea creatures.
It was friggin' awesome, and I want to go back again and again, so I think I'm gonna have to buy a pass. Staff was very helpful and friendly as well. Gift shop was not as pricey as I thought it would be and all in all, it was well worth the admission price.
