Aquarium or Amusement Park?

Recently my cousin decided to take their toddler to an amusement park, but after investigating the prices and other information, they decided it wouldn’t be a cost-friendly trip.  So a friend of theirs, recommended the Sealife Aquarium in Carlsbad, CA.  They went and they loved it.

For starters, the tickets are about $55 less than the amusement parks.  The place is huge and their son loved it!  Everything is set up and tailored for small children. All the displays are at child level so he was able to stand against the window and enjoy all the fish. It's two stories with tons of aquariums and lots of nooks and crannies for the kids to crawl and run around in.  Both kids and adults alike will be entertained.  

There are many cool exhibits, but he especially loved the room that has the schooling fish and the underwater tunnel!  There is also a cleaning shrimp exhibit. The shrimp climb on your hand and give you a manicure!

The Aquarium is located right next to Legoland.  The best days to go are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but any day of the week is great!  On those two days you feel like you have, the entire place to yourself and parking is free on Wednesdays!

The café is absolutely delicious they offer great food like gourmet macaroni and cheese!  All of their simple and natural dishes are made from scratch.

While you are there, pick up information on their S.O.S. (Save Our Seas) program and find out what you can do to help conserve our ocean life.
