On the hunt for a fun, unique way to spend a couple of hours with the family? Or, perhaps you’re just looking for a solo outing that will allow you to relax? Then, you’ll definitely want to meander through this sprawling aquarium in Missouri that’s home to countless sea creatures – from fish and stingray to starfish and sea horses – and that promises something for everyone.
Embark on an unforgettable adventure at Sea Life Aquarium in Kansas City, a spectacular 28,000-square foot aquarium that offers fun, interactive experiences for the whole family.
Other popular exhibits include the jellyfish exhibit, the seahorse exhibit, and the interactive rock pool exhibit. Feel as though you are being watched as countless lookdown fish swim by you.
And, kids and adults of all ages will love the Doodle Reef. Draw your own fish or sea creature on a tablet. Then, marvel as the fish and sea creatures leap alive on a television screen.
Don't forget to visit with Gertrude the green sea turtle. Then, stop by the Turtle Rescue Center, which opened in February 2019. There, you can watch as rescued turtles, who can no longer live in the wild, enjoy their forever home.
Of course, before you leave, you might want to take a detour to the gift shop to stock up on souvenirs. Even if you're not planning to explore the aquarium, you can shop at the gift shop without paying admission.
