It's small, but very cute. Takes about 15 minutes to see everything, longer if you stop to read the informative signs next to each aquarium. There is a small merch area, a tank where you can touch a horseshoe crab, and luckily a very clean bathroom. Not a destination on its own, but a cool little side quest in the state park.

So nice and relaxing. If you aren't a resident it's $10 entrance fee for the day. Many things to do! Biking trails and bike rentals, hiking trails, basketball court, youth center, beach with a nice access, bathrooms are clean and well kept.

A small nature center part of Cape Henlopen State Park. Typically have a touch pond with some sea creatures, and larger fish tanks with local species. Next door is a bike rental and it's less than 1/4 mile from a fishing pier. Worth the visit especially if you have littles.
