Meh, why not the New York Aquarium at Coney Island? Make a day of it- grab a hotdog at Nathan's, walk on the boardwalk, venture out onto Steeplechase Pier. A lot of historical places at Coney are still around. But don't listen to me- I'm biased. I volunteered and interned at the aquarium. And I've got a thing for Coney Island history.
my gf and my son and I went to the aquarium on coney island.Was nice,but nothing special.We were done in an hour.

I guess it's more fun when you get to go behind the scenes. Bringing that troupe of girlscouts on top of the shark tank was quite interesting.

If you want to start this argument, I'll go 15 rounds. Google "save coney island." If you're on facebook, and I imagine you are, being an undergrad and all that, group search "Save Coney Island!"- the first group with about 5,000 ppl is mine. Lots of good info there.
I just back from MA. I went to the New England Aquarium. It was cool, but I don't know if I would say that it was worth the $20 to get in. You have to do something while your there though, so why not go to the local aquarium?
I know coney island was having some problems staying open or was it the boardwalk. Either way coney island aquarium is a niice but I will either plan a dirve to baltimore aquarium or maybe just head down to Camden,, thanks for everyones feedback

It's got some interesting stuff. Quite a few penguin species if I'm remembering correctly. Last time I went was a few years ago. They don't have any large species of marine mammals though- just a few harbor seals.
