Tap into your inner nerd at Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science
True to its mission, the new 250,000-square-foot museum connects people of all ages with science through a range of inspiring programming—some of which is even bilingual. The updated Frost Science (an upgrade from its previous Coconut Grove location) occupies four buildings—the Aquarium, the Frost Planetarium, and the North and West Wings—features year-round exhibits such as “Feathers to the Stars,” “Power of Science” and “MeLab,” an interactive exhibit that lets kids learn about health by using their own bodies to conduct experiments (think hands-on simulations). The “Aquarium” is a remarkable display across three levels, one of which includes the museum’s 500,000-gallon Gulf Stream aquarium that houses all sorts of sea creatures. While the planetarium is a 250-seat, air-conditioned respite with an 8K projection screen and state-of-the-art sound system, offering dazzling visual displays and virtual tours through outer space. And tapping into your inner nerd at Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science is one of the best things to do in Miami.
Frost Science is as state-of-the-art as it gets, featuring interactive opportunities, a 500,000-gallon Gulf Stream aquarium that houses all sorts of sea creatures, and a planetarium dome that hosts monthly laser light shows. Laser evenings are back at Frost Science, featuring monthly laser light spectacles set to incredible soundtracks. The shows rotate often and include music by the likes of the Beatles, David Bowie, The Who, and more.
