Definitely one of the best aquariums we have been to.  Lots of interactive exhibits including Adventure Island, a hands-on playzone.  Touch cownose rays or baby sharks.  See the penguins and sea lions during feeding time.  Walk through the Caribbean Reef which is a 30 foot long tunnel where you are surrounded by sea life....just beautiful!

FAMILY FRIENDLY PROS-  There was enough to keep the kids busy for quite awhile. 
FAMILY FRIENDLY CONS-  Quite pricey for a large family.  Paid parking.
 
no one deals like we do!
