Ucluelet Aquarium

There was an aquarium on the dock and we had heard from a ranger that it was pretty good, so we decided to check it out. We got seniors discounts which was a plus as somewhere else we were, only local seniors got a discount.

Very interesting place with a large tank that we were warned not to put our hands in, several tanks were hands on, touchy feely. We had to wash our hands first to protect the fish and creatures.

We were told that it was a catch and release place, what? Apparently they catch all the exhibits in the local waters and the maximum time they spend there was nine months and then they were released back to the wild or sea in their case.

We couldnt take flash photos and I didnt take any at all but it was a neat place.

The girl on the reception even gave us a recommendation to a bakery for lunch, it was good too.
