Really nothing to see or do for teens or adults. But the smaller children will enjoy the outside activities. Definitely not worth the entrance fee.

While relatively small, the Cox Science Center does a great job to fill the space with interesting aspects for both regular and special exhibits.

Our visit was specific to the limited feature for The Titanic, we spent at least as much time enjoying the other features and taking in a competitive round of Mini Golf.

Parking is both limited but flexible so an early arrival is encouraged if you prefer to wander with reduced crowds, an early Sunday was still a very comfortable.

For locals with children, it's worth considering the benefits of a membership and while I did take time to confirm the rules on food and drinks, all of the smart families had prepared for their trip with a picnic lunch and bottled water.

Members of your group with more energy than a science center allows may find some joy and release in the Frisbee Golf course which runs right into the Science Center.

A very nice small science museum with some interesting mainstays and I saw a great light show that was very relaxing.

This place is really nice. Smaller than I had expected for West Palm Beach, but still had really great activities. We went during the Titanic exhibit and that was really neat. They also were having a Earth Day convention and had vendors set up and free planetarium shows. We were unable to see a show due to them being sold. If you want to see a show, you have to get tickets from the from desk prior the each show. It was also very busy of course.And there isn't a whole lot of parking. But all around a great experience.
