You will also get to see many other species like penguins, stingrays, sharks and schools of fish.  youth and adults will get to experience and encounter a variety of exotic plants and animals from remote regions of our planet. The aquarium also has “cams” for some of the areas such as River Otter Falls, Penguins Rock and Secret Reef.  This is something the family can enjoy on the way to the aquarium or anytime you just want to see an amusing video.    Also, the staff are very animated and very well educated in all of the exhibits.  You will definitely enjoy hearing the stories they can tell!
