Enjoy floor-to-ceiling exhibit windows, giving you a diver’s-eye view of the coral reef, home to more than 500 species of fish.  Celebrate the unbelievable beauty living in our oceans, lakes and rivers in their special exhibit “Underwater Beauty” with over 100 species.

Enjoy free time to explore the Aquarium Galleries & Caribbean Reef, where you can follow sea turtles and sharks around the 360-degree, 90,000-gallon habitat.
