The Florida Aquarium, named one of the top 10 aquariums for kids by Parents magazine, has given families a glimpse into the mysteries and magic of the undersea world and the land that has surrounded it for more than 20 years. Guests can view marine life from around the world from mere inches away or play around The Splash Pad, an outdoor water adventure zone.

The Journey to Madagascar exhibit provides a look into the island's unique wildlife and diverse geography as well as the nearby Indian Ocean coral reef. The marine life exhibits spotlight the creatures that live in the bay or deeper underwater, allowing kids to touch rays and sharks or lock eyes with sea turtles. Visitors can even crawl into a tree full of hissing cockroaches or view the coral-reef exhibit, giant clams, and simulated wetlands. A trip down the Wetlands Trail allows guests to get face to face with playful otters and more circumspect Burmese pythons. The 200,000 square foot aquarium is fun for guests of all ages!
