About Ocean World

Independent sea-life aquarium with shows. A million gallons of tanks housing sharks, seals & rays, plus shark petting & sea lion shows.

💬 What Parents Say

• 🕐Visit during off-peak times (weekdays or shoulder seasons) to spend more time at each enclosure without feeling rushed, as one reviewer noted they were able to linger longer during a 'dead' time of year
• 💡Tours are tour-only (not self-guided) and run every 20 minutes on a first-come basis with limited capacity, so arrive early or call ahead to secure your preferred tour time, especially for the last evening tour which varies by daylight
• 💡Plan 45 minutes for the tour itself, but allocate extra time for the tide pool touch tank and gift shop browsing—reviewers highlighted interactive experiences like touching starfish and shark petting as standout moments worth lingering over
• 💡The gift shop is exceptionally well-curated and reasonably priced for a venue shop, with staff who wrap items nicely; profits support the aquarium, making souvenir purchases a direct contribution to animal care
• 💡Bring a camera for photo opportunities throughout the facility and plan to watch the seal and sea lion performance (featuring named animals like Wyatt, Skully, Marina, Cora, and Pearl) as it's a memorable highlight that many reviewers specifically praised
