EDUCATION

As a teacher I appreciate all the aquarium has done to make learning about the animals easy and engaging for children of all ages.  I especially love how flexible they are with designing an experience that meets the specific needs of a group.

SAFE SPACE

we’re always on a rescue mission

Many of the Aquariums residents are rescued animals that cant be released safely back into the wild, so they stay comfortably here under our care.
