This place is great. Lots of cool sea creatures to see, and some to handle.

Really great place to take the kids. Tons of touch tanks, neat photo ops, and unique marine species. Follow the directions on the signs and don't stick your hands in the grouper or catfish tanks. Some young girl did, she screamed, and the fish drew blood. What a dum-dum!

A marine lab with many touch tanks and lots of marine critters. Been around since the 1950s -- the place is cool and the people and critters are too. Panacea is on the NW Florida gulf coast
