The Aquarium itself will take the whole day to visit with its many exhibits. Be sure to grab a visitor's map on the way in. It will direct you to the "Splash Zone", which is a place especially for children 9 and under, and their families. Also featugreen is the "Touch Pool" where one might get a hands on experience.

This little coastal town also boasts the famed Cannery Row. Shops and restaurants aplenty for your average tourist! I bought a jacket and a spaghetti stringy t-shirt, visited the museum and stuffed my face at a local Thai restaurant. The food was delish!
