Nice little aquarium that features local sea life. The main attractions are the shark tanks (Leopard, horn, rays), a couple octopus tanks, a flatfish tank, kelp life tanks, and a jellyfish lifecycle series of tanks. There are also some tide-pool touch tanks; they also let you touch the Swell Sharks. I highly recommend stopping by if youre in the area.

Super fun, small aquarium. Touch tanks are fun. There is a touch tank for swell sharks also. They feed the octopus at 2pm. One of the attendants knows sign language which was very helpful for the 2 hearing impaired visitors. She did a great job. Very interesting horseshoe crabs were in a tank with rays, sharks and a moray eel. Admission is $8.00.

Two room aquarium with 11 exhibits that showcase the native species on the central coast. They have a feeding every couple of hours, very informative. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

Exceptionally quaint and pretty little Beach town. The locals are friendly and happy for you to be there. Sometimes during the season it is quite crowded but usually its not too bad.

This is a small aquarium near the park in downtown Avila Beach. It costs money to get in but it all goes to supporting this non profit and their amazing programs.

Love bringing my son here, have a year pass. From the touching exhibits to just watching baby jellyfish swim around he is always intrigued.
