Named one of USA Today’s 10 Best Aquariums, Adventure Aquarium is home to a diverse collection of more than 15,000 aquatic animals, including the largest collection of sharks in the Northeast. It is also the only aquarium in the world to exhibit hippos.
Experience the Underwater World Like Never Before
Come face-to-fin with exclusive attractions including Shark Realm featuring a 550,000-gallon tank alive with more than 20 sharks and 200 sea animals.
Dare to cross Shark Bridge, the longest rope suspension bridge of its kind allowing guests to walk just inches above sand tiger, sandbar, Atlantic blacktip and nurse sharks. Or venture through the 40-foot Shark Tunnel and be surrounded by dozens of sharks swimming above, around and beside you.
An Ocean of Unique Exhibits
Explore unique exhibits like Ocean Realm featuring 760,000 gallons of water and home to sea turtles, stingrays, silky sharks, blacktip sharks and one of just two great hammerhead shark exhibits in the United States. Discover what it feels like to touch the world’s most exotic sharks at the Touch A Shark exhibit. Roll up your sleeves and enjoy up-close aquatic adventures at the Grotto touch pool and Imagination Sand Station inside KidZone for an undersea playground filled with dozens of touch-friendly creatures.
The cuteness never stops with two species of adorable penguins, from the smallest little blues to the African penguin colony outside in Penguin Park, complete with a soft play area for the kids to waddle around.
