DOWNTOWN.   Seattle Aquarium shelters a host of marine life, highlighting creatures found in the Pacific Northwest. One of the facility's most intriguing features is an underwater dome where visitors can watch fish and sea mammals swim around them. A kid-friendly touch tank lets children handle sea creatures and learn to treat them gently. Other attractions concentrate on spawning salmon and the antics of several adorable sea otters, who really earn their keep at feeding time.   (© 10Best)

The displays are nice. There's a small tide pool for the kids to touch the starfish (sorry - correction, seastars). A neat overarching glass tank/display of jellyfish where you can watch the jellyfish swim over you, and the very popular octopus tank (which was a stroller traffic-jam). There's also an outdoor section where you can observe a few birds and mammals in the water. Aside from that..... Our kids are 6,4 & 2 and we were done in 20 minutes (or less). After paying almost $50 (with discount), we felt like it was money down the drain. I would have hoped to have found more than a mere entertainment/educational value of 20 minutes for that amount of money. For less money, it might be worth visiting. But my recommendation: just keep walking. It's not worth the time or the money.
