Have you ever wished you could pet a shark, or hand-feed nectar to an exotic Australian bird? Take a trip to the Aquarium of the Pacific, home of 650 different species of Pacific Ocean marine life, including fish, sea otters, sea lions, seals, sharks, and stingrays. The progressive aquarium’s exhibits focus on educating visitors about its aquatic residents, and addressing current ocean issues such as conservation and habitat protection. The aquarium is located on the waterfront, at the Pike at Rainbow Harbor.
