Acrobatic dolphins, curious belugas and colorful rainbows of tropical fish are just some of the nearly 60,000 animals you'll encounter at this extraordinary nature center. More than an aquarium, you'll find a variety of pavilions, each temperature controlled and specific to an area of exploration from the Tropical Pacific to the icy Arctic. In the steamy Amazon Gallery, track through the jungle with its exotic birds and plants - and be warned - tropical thunderstorms seem to break out frequently. The beluga whale pool is a must, especially as viewed from the floor to ceiling underwater windows where you'll enjoy a rare close-up view of these enormous but gentle creatures. The birth of a calf this past July adds to the enjoyment of visiting these majestic creatures up close. Then there's the new Pacific Canada Pavilion, which brings you face to face with a vast web of plant and animal life from the Strait of Georgia. Watch as divers mingle with the marine life daily. As a science center, research and education are key components to the work here. The new Wild Coast exhibit features a multi-species habitat, highlighting some of the creatures you'll find in BC, including dolphins, sea lions, otters, and seals. Many of the activities are very kid-friendly - touchy-feeling tide pools, scary insects, watching sharks feed and feeding the fish themselves.
