It's small, but very cute. Takes about 15 minutes to see everything, longer if you stop to read the informative signs next to each aquarium. There is a small merch area, a tank where you can touch a horseshoe crab, and luckily a very clean bathroom. Not a destination on its own, but a cool little side quest in the state park.

So nice and relaxing. If you aren't a resident it's $10 entrance fee for the day. Many things to do! Biking trails and bike rentals, hiking trails, basketball court, youth center, beach with a nice access, bathrooms are clean and well kept.

Very cool place to check out & ride bikes for free!! Cool beach hiking paths & military memorabilia. Gorgeous views from the paths and look outs.
