There is all sorts of nautical equipment and gear out side the aquarium entrance. This diving bell is pretty famous as it used to take people for rides under the water. It was used in the 50s and 60s if memory serves.
There is a historic marker next to it which reads:
The famous Steel Pier Diving Bell emerges with a thrust to the surface. Spectators watching could hear the excited passengers through speakers. The ride took place near the Ocean end of the pier.
