"The small, marine-focused learning center is home to, amongst other things, a complete orca skeleton that is the highlight of any visit. Full of interactive exhibits, too, like a microscope displaying plankton and a sea life touch tank, this is an excellent place to bring the kids. Not only will there be plenty to hold their attention, but the space is compact enough that you'll be able to get through in 60 minutes." - Jenna Scatena, Allison Williams
