We were very pleased to see that the aquarium was pretty much ours for the first half hour or so, then a school trip arrived. Even then, we were definitely visiting in the off season.
Corpus has a great aquarium right on the water. Lots to see outside (dolphins, sea turtles, river otters, birds, crocodiles) and then inside some HUGE tanks with sharks and big fish. We finished our visit off with the dolphin show.
Our quick drive through downtown Corpus was not as quick as we wanted (got a bit lost looking for a place to eat). We did find some great spots to revisit though at a later date. The city is really trying to make the area a tourist/family destination with parks and bike paths along the water.
The kids in the underwater dolphin viewing area. We were the only ones down there, so the dolphins really played for the kids - very fun.
These sting rays were CRAZY in this one spot. We tried other spots around the pool and for some reason this is where they tried to jump out - Roger thinks it might be their feeding area. Pretty funny. The fountain video is from a really nice spot we found near the Corpus Art Museum.
