This is a separate review from the Aquarium itself, because I feel as though they are two different attractions.  Namely, this one is free.  The seals are in big tank outside of the aquarium and you can go check in on them at any time of day or night.

You can hang out and eat dipping dots or drink your morning tea in front of the tank.  Sometimes I meet friends for lunch at the tank and then eat our grub on the adjacent wharf (where people are usually skateboarding or trying to).

If you are willing to shell out ($35-$45) you can also get in there with the blubbery masses and throw them a fish popsicle.

For me personally, I've taken a date or two in my day over to the tanks at night and it's really romantic/quiet/peaceful.  There is something sweet about watching obese seals snoring away on the rocks with an attractive counterpart. And then you can look longingly into eachothers eyes....

..now that i think of it..just don't go when I go, because then you'll totally blow up my spot.
