    Wow, what a great experience at the Marine Discovery Center! We were passing through NSB and decided to stop in as we had some free time and we were glad we did. The staff were so welcoming and we enjoyed the tour of the main building and the facts about the animals on display. It was great to listen about the different programs they have available for children and we are really looking forward to returning and taking part in some during our next visit.
