Environmentally speaking, the place leaves all other Cuban aquariums in the shade (although that isn't saying much). For a start, it's designed to be both educational and conservationist. Saltwater fish are the specialty, but there are also sea lions, dolphins and lots of running-around room for kids.

Dolphin performances are almost hourly from , with the final show at ; admission includes the show. There's also a decent restaurant here.
