    Great place to take kids who are interested in learning. Staff is so friendly and personable with children! One woman went above and beyond with my son who talked her head off about the animals there. We will definitely be back.

    This is a really great place to go with family and learn about a lil history and some locally found marine life common to the area. It is free and the staff we met were very educational and even took us over to the classroom building to see more items. I'd like to go back and do a boat education trip in the future.
