Sounds like an odd question. I don't think that the aquarium is close to shore. I have always picked up a mooring ball. As such, it does not feel close to shore. The odd part relates to having no sense as to the distance from shore.

We always called the place in the Indians, by the dinghy moorings the Aquarium.

The aquarium is just south of Spanish town, just off the point. 200 meters? More ? Less?

It can be a high boat traffic area. I would be very careful swimming out there.
