This afternoon, check-in at the box office at the Aquarium of the Pacific before meeting with your animal husbandry professional for an exclusive opportunity to interact with charismatic marine life!
The Aquarium of the Pacific espouses a strong conservation message, as many of it's 11,000 animals representing over 500 different species face various barriers affecting their continued survival. The price of admission is included in your ticket cost, so you are able to enjoy other feature exhibits including the Shark Lagoon and Lorikeet Forest, a 3,200 sq. ft. aviary filled with magnificently hued lorikeets, among others.
This unique experience will take you behind-the-scenes to see tanks and areas that are not exhibited to the public, as your expert educator discusses unique biology and ecological facts about the different life you will see. Then you'll be introduced to different animal species (octopus and sea otters OR penguins and seals/sea lions!) Each of these fascinating animals has a charm of their own, which you will be able to admire as you get up close for a feeding - watching as they engage with you in comical ways. Be sure to bring a camera to capture these intimate personal encounters with your group!
*The animals featured in the VIP encounters may change due to unforeseen circumstances such as animal health & welfare, or other factors such as required habitat maintenance. Please inquire when booking to see which animal encounter may be available.
