The Seattle Aquarium is certainly one of the smaller aquariums I've been too. Understanding this the aquarium has done a great job of not trying to cover every possible aquatic species or area. Instead the Seattle Aquarium concentrates on the marine life of Puget Sound and the Northwest. They even have an exhibit on shore and tidepool birds. Yes, you don't normally find a bird exhibit at an aquarium, but it fits in nicely with the Seattle Aquarium theme of covering everything related to the Northwest marine life. Plus, they have the always popular sea otter exhibit. Check it out if you're looking for something to do one afternoon.
