In front of the aquarium there’s a decent sized playground. Looked to be lots of climbing nets.

Looking at the entrance of the aquarium.

They have a little photo op area here that over looks the water. It's normally extremely crowded right here unless you get there early.

The first area you come to is a little pool area where you can touch the star fish.

The whale sharks. We happened to be there around feeding time.

They have actual sharks there as well.
