Loved coming here! We have a 3 and 6 year old we came around noon and stayed till closing and had so much to do. Good at the cafe was more costly but it was very tasty and well proportioned. Call and ask ahead of time if there are any surgeries being performed on your day you can watch them do the surgery.

Took two granddaughters to visit sites in CA. The Aquarium was one and was very enjoyable. Both girls were interested in each area. Take your parking ticket with you as they validate on your way out. Reduces the cost of parking to $8. Parking is readily available. Remember to book online ahead of time.

Great experience, definitely a little way too packed. It made complete sense though we were there for Memorial Day weekend. The information on each exhibit was incredible and all the aquatic life we got to see was amazing. We were able to touch some moon jellyfish for the first time it was definitely an experience!
