About this page:  Originally written sometime in 2006

What a refreshing respite from the gaudy artificial loudness of the rest of the city. Sure, any major aquarium puts this place to shame in terms of size and scope, but still... there was a nice variety of marine life on display, along with a reasonably informed and friendly staffer answering questions in the main (stingray-petting) room.

And dang, the jellyfish tank... those things are both freakish and hauntingly beautiful!

So, yeah, it initially pained me to pay $16 or so for this relatively compact tourist attraction, but it was a delightfully soothing -- and quite informative -- way to spend two hours on the strip.
