Any good public aquariums in Maine?
I'm on my way to Augusta, Maine next week, and was wondering if there are any good public aquariums in that area? They don't even have to be "good" really, just any aquarium at all will do.

Yes hit the boston aquarium..i grew up in maine and went there alot when i was young.I have not been there for many years but i always enjoyed it.I cant think of any other aquariums in that area.There used to be a small one in portland,me but it closed years ago and was of species native to the maine coast.

In Connecticut there is the Norwalk Aquarium and the Mystic Aquarium. I've not been to the Norwalk, but the Mystic is nicely done. Then the next one I know of on that route would be the New England Aquarium in Boston. The Norwalk and Mystic are just off of 95, and the New England Aquarium is not far off the route either, just a bit of city driving to deal with between 95 and the aquarium.

Well, I made it to the New England Aquarium. There were a ton of people because of christmas break, but I still enjoyed myself. Here's the link to my pics:
