Finding Nemo! (still searching)

If you speak to the natives, some of the attractions that will pop up will be the Museum of Science, Museum of Fine Arts, and the Aquarium. These, of course, being the focus destinations in school field trips from our childhood. If you are interested in the aquatic nature Boston has to offer and have a limited time, the choice is clear.


The aquarium features sea lions, cuddly penguins, as well as fearsome sharks and an underwater petting zoo. Be forewarned, that although the aquarium has much to offer, it is not all that large. It can take one-half to one hour to walk through the entire facility, which may leave you disappointed as far as bang-for-your-buck goes ($23 adult, $16 child). Especially if you have kids, the Museum of Science may be a better choice for those with a curious nature.

For some extra cash, the New England Aquarium has IMAX shows, live shows, as well as the infamous Boston whale watch.Without the extras, I'm not sure it's entirely worth it.
