What visitors say
I got the membership for my kids. Prices aren't bad and they have another activity they can participate in for a whole other year. Area is a nice walk and very shaded. They have shows for the kids every few hours and other fun…
Such a wonderful experience and exhibits! Our family had a great day here!
Great visit, but some of the turtles where not out due to the weather
