The Trust Family Foundation Shark and Ray Touch Tank will feature sharks and rays in a 25,000-gallon tank surrounded by shallow edges and viewing windows, allowing visitors to experience a close encounter with these animals. The beautiful new space replicates a large mangrove area. The rays glide around the tank where visitors have the opportunity to reach right in and touch these graceful creatures.
Whether you choose to actually touch the rays or just watch - this new exhibit is very enjoyable and adds a whole new interactive dimension to the Aquarium.
New! Timed Ticketing! NEAQ is bringing more flexibility to your Aquarium visit with timed ticketing! Buy online or stop by our Box Office, because it's always the right time to touch a ray!
