DH and I LOVE the Living Seas and were just there last week. Granted, it could use a refurb, but to us the point is the aquarium itself. There are two baby manatees there right now and they are so playful and fun to watch! We like to go in and spend an hour or so just hanging out and watching the rays, sharks, dolphins and fish in the big tanks. It's nice and cool and there are lots of spots to sit and relax, so it makes a nice break. We also enjoy the room with the shallow pool, jellyfish, seahorses and other smaller creatures. We usually go pretty quickly through the exhibit and then straight to the hydrolators.
