This is a must stop! First off, it’s free. Second, Keith knows so much about sharks, their history, and presence in pop culture that he is able to answer all your questions even it you consider yourself a shark expert. Third, his collection is amazing. He has so many shark artifacts that just looking around it worth the walk upstairs alone. Please stop by and donate if you can! Their t-shirts for sale are a major plus!
