Charlotte KerrSeptember 12, 2013Don't take your kids, it just ruins the experience for others when they are constantly screaming and banging on the glass of every exhibit- MarniOctober 20, 2014It's touristy, and over-priced. But it is a lot of fun. If you are only in town for a day or two, skip it and go to Point Lobos instead.

Please don't use your flash when taking pictures of the animals!
