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 a Pacific white sided dolphin 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.
Lolita the Killer Whale along with her Pacific white-sided dolphin companions provide insight into the grace, beauty and intelligence of these marine mammals.
Lolita has been part of the Miami Seaquarium family for almost 40 years. She plays an important role in educating the public about the need to conserve marine species.
More than 75,000 school children and 500,000 guests visit Miami Seaquarium each year to learn about Lolita and the other residents of the sea.
TV and movie star Flipper takes center stage in this dolphin show in lagoon that served as film location for much of the popular 1960s television show of the same name.
Located under the famous Golden Dome, this show is lots of fun as the seal and sea lion stars show off their athletic and comedic abilities.
Atlantic bottlenose dolphins are featured in this show, where they show off their aerial and natural athletic abilities.
This mangrove habitat is home to twenty-six Nile Crocodiles, the white tailed deer, rescued and rehabilitated sea turtles, indigenous fish and rays, alligators and a host of native wild birds – herons, egrets and ibis.
Miami Seaquarium is one of three institutions in the state of Florida authorized to rescue, rehabilitate and release Manatees. This presentation provides guests with an opportunity to learn about this fascinating and highly endangered animal.
Home to the all-new Stingray Touch Pool, this exhibit allows park guests to have an up-close look of graceful Southern and Cow-nose Stingrays as well as view exotic birds that are indigenous to the rapidly depleting rainforests of the world.
Food and gift outlets are located throughout the park for guest convenience. Menus range from salads and sandwiches to pizza, frozen yogurt, hot dogs and hamburgers, nachos, soft drinks, beer and wine-based frozen margaritas, pina coladas and daiquiris. The gift shops offer a wide selection of unusual gifts, film, tee shirts, toys, games, plush animals, art objects and more.
