Fodor's Review:

Open 365 days barring weather-related events, the aim here is to entertain children—and adults—with the wonders of science. The courtyard's 52-foot-tall Great Gravity Clock lets arrivals know cool experiences await. Exhibits include Kidscience, encouraging youngsters to explore the world; and Gizmo City, a look at how gadgets work. Florida Ecoscapes has a living coral reef, plus sharks, rays, and eels. The AutoNation IMAX theater, part of the complex, shows films, some in 3-D. Nearby is the Food for Thought Café.

Cost: Museum $10, $15 with one IMAX show
Open: Mon.-Sat. 10-5, Sun. noon-6
