I love aquariums and zoos and I think that seattle has the best of both of them.
The aquarium is located downtown on the Waterfront, overlooking beautiful Elliott Bay.
There is a vast array of different animals and sea creatures here, including a giant Pacific Octopus which seems to hover in his tank, eyeing everyone with his oversized eye.
The otter exhibit is fun and exciting, as are all of the tanks and reefs.
Highly reccomended especially since it's on the wonderful waterfront, a place you're sure to spend inordinate amounts of time if you're visiting Seattle.
