Frommer's Review

This $38-million, 1-million-gallon marine attraction filled with sharks, stingrays, and more, transports visitors through clear acrylic tunnels via a moving footpath. Frankly, however, it's overrated and overpriced, and I recommend you skip it. If you really want to see marine life, take a drive down the coast to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
