Laboratorio y Acuario Marinos Mote

Experiencia fantástica: I'd say it's best for younger kids. We visited with our toddler and thought it was perfect. Everyone was so nice and knowledgeable. This is a great addition to the pier. They are doing great things for the community and best of all, it is free to visit.

Experiencia negativa: So disappointed. Touch a horseshoe crab, a sea urchin, color a picture --done. Ten minutes if you take your time. Space was better used as a restaurant.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Fun time and live music! Awesomeness!

Experiencia positiva: Cute little marine exhibit

Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful pier!

Experiencia negativa: Waste of space. I miss the old restraunt.

Experiencia fantástica: My son loves coming here

Experiencia fantástica: Small but very educational. The young lady manning the horshoe crab & urchin tank is friendly and knows her info. Oftentimes I am disappointed by the lack of info by those stationed in an area, but they had a wealth of knowledge as long as you ask the right questions. Thank you! I enjoyed learning about the horseshoe crab.

Experiencia fantástica: Very cute place to bring young kids for a little marine science education at the end of the pier. There are touch tanks and small aquariums and things to touch. I definitely plan to bring my kids to the Mote Marine facility while on this vacation. The best part is this little area is free.

Experiencia fantástica: Unbedingt besuchen...eines der schönsten Ecken Floridas

Experiencia fantástica: What a cool place that is at the end of the Anna Maria pier! One great example of local tax dollars funding places like this!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to take the kids, lots of hands on things for them to do, plus you have a beautiful pier to walk out on.

Experiencia positiva: A great little exhibit, showing information about the sealife around the Pier. Can touch some of the sea creatures and see things like shark teeth.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to go if you have young kids or are looking to learn more about the local animals and the environment. They have some great informational tablets and they also have live animals. Overall good experience if you are on the end of the pier and looking for something to do.
