Atlanta has the largest oceanarium in the United States. It is a landmark of national significance. The total volume of the aquarium is 32 000 cubic meters; it is inhabited by about 120 000 marine animals and fish. The vast territory of the oceanarium is divided into several thematic exhibitions. There is also the excellent dolphinarium, Dolphin Tales.

A rather unusual exhibition called Cold Water Quest acquaints visitors with the inhabitants of the coldest oceans. Here, you can see a family of belugas, as well as African penguins adapted to the harsh environmental conditions. The Tropical Diver exhibition, on the other hand, is dedicated to the inhabitants of the warmest seas. Here, you can see incredibly beautiful tropical fish, exotic jellyfish, and corals. Those are gems usually hunted by divers from around the world.

One of the most impressive is the Ocean Voyager aquarium inhabited by four whale sharks. Its design features an acrylic tunnel, so it is incredibly interesting to observe the marine life. The Georgia aquarium offers a huge variety of educational tourist options. Fans of thrills can go diving and swimming in an aquarium with sharks. Talking about entertainment, it’s worth noting a possibility to spend a night in the aquarium. This is only a part of the surprises prepared for guests of one of the most incredible oceanariums in the world.
