Frequently Asked Questions

  • Does the Georgia Aquarium provide showers for Sleepover guests?

    Showers are not available during our overnight events.

  • Do you have a Program Handbook for my Sleep Under the Sea sleepover?

    Yes!  You can view or download a copy of the handbook here.  The link to this handbook is included in your confirmation email after you’ve purchased your sleepover.

  • Can I buy shirts that look like the ones staff wears?

    Georgia Aquarium is glad to offer a variety of branded apparel in our gift shops, however we do not sell Aquarium team member uniforms. For the safety of our guests, team and animals, it is important that we are always able to discern between members of the public and Georgia Aquarium staff and volunteers.

    ·  Ocean Voyager built by The Home Depot

    ·  Cold Water Quest Gallery

    ·  Southern Company River Scout

    ·  Sharks! Predators of the Deep Gallery

  • Can I Request a Sleeping Area?

    We cannot guarantee sleeping locations. Assignments are made after all guests have checked in, and are based upon the group make-up, size and needs. Additionally, partial or entire galleries may be unavailable due to other activities and/or animal care taking place.

  • What Is the Minimum Age Allowed?

    Minimum age requirement for sleepovers, unless otherwise specified (i.e. middle school, adult) is 7 years old. Any guests under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult of 21 years of age or older. Adult sleepovers have a minimum age of 21+.

  • When Is Payment Due?

    All sleepovers must be reserved and paid in full at least 30 days before the desired sleepover date.

  • How Soon Should We Reserve Spots?

    Sleepovers sell out fast! We encourage all guests to make reservations at least one month in advance.

    Please be advised that all Sleepovers WILL NOT include dinner but will include a bedtime snack and a breakfast option.
