Considered one of the world's best aquariums, the National Aquarium's mission is to inspire conservation of the world's aquatic treasures. Visitors can experience close-up encounters with more than 20,000 ocean and river animals, invertebrates, fish, and birds while learning about their lives, habitats, threats, and conservation efforts. You will also enjoy daily docent talks and animal feedings, as well as, exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences like sleepovers and tours.
