A nice small aquarium. It is the best highlight of the island. I recommend checking it out..it has a nice outside board walk to the ocean with benches to rest and enjoy. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable.

Loved the aquarium the gift shop was cute but beware bring your own bag. The gift shop charges you for bag to put your purchases.
