This place was amazing. A little pricey at $50, but they are doing something right as it was pretty crowded the day that I was there.
After entering I made a left and went through the kelp forest display. I was impressed at the immensity of the tank.
Next up for me after a quick trip outside was the open ocean display. The jellyfish were absolutely amazing and this display. The kind of place where you could have spent all day.
I had hoped to see the otter feeding after checking the schedule. I walked by the tank about 20 minutes before the feeding and realize that there was no way that I would be able to take part in that activity. I did stop back by the otter tank about 10 minutes after it was over and had a nice view of the otters.
There are several great exhibits that you should check out.
