Andy did an amazing job incorporating math, science, history, and architecture into the sandcastle building lessons for our students. He is extremely talented in his sandcastle building. Andy proved to be wonderful and engaging instructor. He walked around and gave insight when we ran into trouble or needed some advice. Do not skip this class! It was easily the most fun we've had on our trip this far!

Our 9 (now 10) yr old son had his very first surf session with Aarin back in October and he was up…read moreon the board almost immediately! He loved it and was hooked! Aarin is wonderful with teaching kids about not only surfing but also about the importance of taking care of our ocean and the creatures who live there! We knew we had to book with SPI Sessions for our next trip which was this week! Our son had two surf sessions with Gaines! His excitement for surfing and the ocean is contagious! Our son had a blast surfing with Gaines and we look forward to coming back in October and seeing him again! Gaines was very informative with us and let us know exactly how he's doing and the next step type lessons that we can look forward to! All the booking and arrangements were done via text and Aarin has great communication so we knew if there were any location changes or adjustments that needed to be made due to weather! We wish we came during a time when our son could experience one of Aarin's camps! I highly highly recommend this experience! I'm positive their SUP tours would be just as fun and something we hope to do on our next visit as well as surf lessons for our son!

This is easily the best zoo I've ever been to. My heart goes out to the founders, curators, staff,…read moreand all those involved in the creation and maintenance of this zoo. The zoo is beautifully designed and is easy to walk. The layout lends to a great experience. I couldn't believe how close we could get to some of the animals! I had no idea this was the birthplace of Harambe, which made it all the more special. TITS OUT. I recommend this zoo to anyone visiting the Brownsville area

Let me start by saying this is my childhood zoo. It holds a very special place in my heart, so what…read moreI'm about to say comes from a place of love. More mister fans could be placed throughout the zoo. It's so humid and hot that the little shade, along with the sparsely located mister fans throughout the property, isn't sufficient enough during the hotter times of the year. Yes, I have noticed that there are fans and some other locations with smaller patches of canvas shading, but it's not enough; maybe the zoo can look into plants that will provide shade and vine plants that will grow and climb and create shade naturally in time. This location is currently going through a lot of remodeling. A lot of animals were not out. This could be due to the heat and humidity, and also, maybe they got relocated due to the remodeling. Trash. My biggest pet peeve is the trash that's lying around on the ground or an empty soda cup in the sections of the zoo where, before entering the doors, it states "no food or drink allowed." But somehow, while looking at the lionfish and seahorse, I found a kid's cup on the step, empty. I don't understand why people don't just pick up after themselves. I don't care for the zip line, but I get it; it's a tool to draw people into the zoo. I know the zoo is doing everything it can to improve itself, but it also needs to focus on the current exhibits it has, as well as the animals whose enclosures are outdated.
