Downtown Aquarium

Comment on Facebook

At this classy carnival, expect rides and amusements for the entire family.

The Shark Voyage is a highlight: Travel via train into an acrylic tunnel with live sharks swimming overhead.

Ride the 100-foot Diving Bell Ferris wheel for an incredible view of the city, or the aquatic carousel if you'd rather be grounded.

See educational exhibits of themed underwater environments like the Rainforest.

Quell your hunger at the Marina Matinee cafe or Aquarium restaurant; quench your thirst at the Dive Lounge.

Thinking big? The Nautilus Ballroom accommodates 450 people.
