STINGRAY EXPERIENCE
Begin by learning about the biology and habitat of all animals that live in Ray Bay. Then put on a wetsuit and enter Friendship Flats where you will be surrounded by four different species of rays.

The rays will sit on your lap and may even give you a kiss!

SLEEP WITH THE SHARKS
Count sharks instead of sheep while drifting off to sleep in our Dangerous Reef Tunnel in this exciting overnight adventure! Unlock the mysteries of the aquarium at night through a variety of learning activities. Customize your experience by adding additional Scout Adventures.
