- BeawChan from Dormont, PA - TripAdvisor"This tour consists of climbing onto a mock submarine and then sitting below sea level while the "submarine" took us to Lover's Cove Marine Preserve. The view out the portholes is AWESOME and when the crew fed the fish, the frenzy of fish at our window was amazing."
