As far as aquariums go, I give this one relatively high marks. A bit out of the way, it is located…read moreright on the water with awesome views of the sea. There is not a ton of animals, but the tanks they have are well executed and seem well taken care of. Exhibits like the Nautilus are pretty cool but also feel a bit random.
