 It’s
Miami’s premier attraction! It’s the place where
dolphins fly, where fearsome moray eels lurk in
coral reef caverns, where shimmering schools of
exotic fish dance through underwater seascapes,
and it’s the only place where you will see the
graceful beauty of four Pacific white sided
dolphins combined with the awesome power of a
three ton killer whale. It’s a world-class
marine-life entertainment park with eight
different marine animal shows and presentations
offered each day. It’s Miami Seaquarium!
Miami Seaquarium, located ten minutes from
downtown Miami on beautiful Virginia Key, offers
visitors hours of fun – and it’s educational
too. Across 38 landscaped acres, the marine life
entertainment park provides a fun-filled mix of
exhibits, shows, attractions, food and shopping
opportunities that have made it a Miami
institution.
