The walk, section by section
- Underwater tunnel: the main event. Look up and you'll see fish passing overhead.
- Freshwater and marine tanks: look for the moray eel, alligator gar, tarpon and sun catfish. The fish page has the current list.
- Jellyfish room: reflective walls make the jellyfish appear to go on in every direction.
- Waterfalls and lounge: indoor man-made waterfalls and an ocean-view seating lounge.
- Interactive zones: educational displays that kids can explore.
