Sharks! Predators of the Deep® is one of the largest and most dynamic shark exhibits in North America. Home to some of the ocean’s most recognizable apex predators, this immersive gallery brings you face-to-face with some of the sea’s most enigmatic—and misunderstood—creatures.
At Georgia Aquarium, we aim to offer a fresh perspective on the critical role sharks play in maintaining ocean health. Despite their power and presence, sharks face significant threats—including overfishing, habitat loss, and most of all, human impact. In this engaging exhibit, you’ll explore the vital importance of these top predators and why their survival matters to us all.
Featuring state-of-the-art, floor-to-ceiling acrylic viewing windows, Sharks! Predators of the Deep offers an unparalleled look into the mysterious world of sharks.
Georgia Aquarium is also proud to share that this newest gallery is part of our LEED-certified expansion. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is the world’s most widely used green building rating system, recognizing buildings that are healthy, efficient, and sustainable. This certification underscores our ongoing commitment to environmental leadership—both above and below the surface.
