A visit to the Aquarium is uniquely interactive – the 4,500-square-foot marine center is loaded with hands-on exhibits; staff, trained volunteers, and interns are stationed throughout ready to help identify animals on display, answer questions, and engage in conversation about the ocean environment.

It's a quaint place. Staff are friendly. They have sharks and starfish tank area that you can touch. Make sure to ask when is the next feeding time for the star fish.
