Cox Science Center and Aquarium

Its exhibits and programs offer a family-oriented indoor visit within Dreher Park, with different activities helping connect scientific ideas to everyday observation. Older photographs and references may use its former South Florida Science Center and Aquarium name.

Check current visitor information and construction updates before arriving, since the center's expansion can affect what is available. Planetarium shows, camps, and special programs follow their own schedules or ticket arrangements. Choose the activities that suit your group and confirm current access rather than assuming every advertised future feature is already open.
