It is the best science museum. The staffs are very friendly. The exhibitions appropriate for everyone. They were pilots, engineers, artists biologists etc. My 5 years daughter enjoyed a lot. And for us it was the right learning place to spend during our vacations. That was a really good experience. I love to repeat again to see my daughter smiling face. And my parents 73 years old also have a good time and they enjoyed the experience too. The exhibitions are designed for kids but I notice that was a really good therapy for older people special for my dad. The activities that he also participated put a smile in his face. It was better than a doctor visit. They were kids for a couple of hours. So thank you I hope we can flight again to this wonderful place.

I have been coming here since I was a tiny human! Love being able to bring my kiddos here. All the neat different types of animals on the bottom floor are amazing - and all the learning activities on the second floor are awesome! It’s a great place to bring children of all ages. Staff is very knowledgeable, very friendly, and very welcoming. Somebody is almost always smiling at you! They have a pretty neat gift shop too.

Excellent for children up to the age of twelve or thirteen. The museum has lots of fun interactive exhibits, some simple, some more advanced. The IMAX 3D educational movies take the whole experience to a level of unforgettable. It's possible to visit all exhibits within a few hours in a single day. We only saw one otter swimming when we went. There are two mini rides that kids enjoy without much wait time when we were there (at the same time as a class trip). The petting zoo is pretty standard, but there are other exhibits like the storm simulator that are unique to give it a unique experience overall. Would go again.

I like this museum and my kid always has fun, which is the most important thing. They have some interesting exhibits, but I feel like they should update it more often. On our recent visit, there were a few sections closed and one ride that was also under renovation. They have an otter exhibit and an outside area with some cool things to do. Those are probably my 2 favorite parts. I've been coming to this museum for years, and I guess with each visit I'm hoping they would have updated or added new things.

Great place to explore and get educated while on vacation and get out of the heat or rainy days! My family enjoyed all the interactive hands on learning activities as well as the IMAX movie. Wished we could've got there earlier to enjoy more activities. Will go back, if we ever come back to Florida!
