Boston is Buzzing about the New Aquarium Experience!

The New Aquarium Experience is here and we've been sharing our excitement with some of the media around these parts. Local newspapers and television and radio stations have been featuring some lovely pictures, video and information about our Giant Ocean Tank. Here's a quick round-up, including some of the lovely pictures that have been featured in these news stories!

The grand reopening marked the first time visitors got to see the Yawkey Coral Reef Center, which includes the top of the Giant Ocean Tank with its glass railing and several new exhibits with smaller Caribbean fish.

Now, as exciting as it is to see the Aquarium and its new exhibits in the limelight, it doesn't compare to seeing the Giant Ocean Tank and its 2,000 residents in person. Come on by! It's easier than ever to visit  with timed ticketing these days. Choose the day and time that you'd like to visit and buy your tickets in advance.

  1. The picture with the diver swimming with the sea turtle is awesome. It would be great if the aquarium can have a guest swim there as well from time to time as a feature or some sort of the giant aquarium.
