Aquanaut Adventure: A Discovery ZoneOur world is made of extremes: here in the all-new Aquanaut Adventure: A Discovery Zone you’ll discover what it takes for animals to survive and thrive in some of the harshest environments on Earth… and what it takes to study them!

Visiting Aquanaut Adventure is a unique experience that allows guests to learn about aquatic life in some of the most extreme environments on our planet during an expedition through this fully renovated gallery. Featuring many new habitats and some brand-new species to the Aquarium, Aquanaut Adventure will teach parents and kids about the innovation it takes to study our world… and how much more there is to learn!

As Aquanauts-in-training, participants will explore fresh water and marine habitats, scientific research, how animals thrive in extreme environments, and even catch a glimpse into what it’s like to have a career in aquatic and marine sciences. The gallery instills a sense of appreciation for our oceans, lakes and rivers of our planet and an understanding of the organisms that thrive there.

    Fast Fact

    The African tortoise’s shell hinges at the joints that make up the bony plates of its shell. This allows these tortoises to climb better than others.
