SEA LIFE Tropical Ocean
The most popular feature of SEA LIFE is the Tropical Ocean exhibit, an underwater tunnel beneath the aquarium’s largest tank. This exhibit is home to over 800 incredible creatures! Visitors can enjoy watching a breathtaking array of fish, rays, and sharks swim around (and above) from a view that imitates the ocean floor.
SEA LIFE Touch Pool
Modeled after the tide pools of the West Coast, the Touch Pool is a favorite for kids of all ages. You’ll get to reach in and interact with a variety of aquatic creatures like starfish, sea urchins, hermit crabs, and more.
