Sleep with the Sharks

Sharks, skates and rays ... oh my!

Are you one of those people who can't fall asleep by counting sheep?  Join us for one of our aquarium sleepovers, and try counting fish swimming over your head instead!!! After a fun-filled evening exploring life under the ocean, be lulled to sleep by the soothing sights of our Passages of the Deep tunnels! Your group will have the aquarium to itself as you travel through our exhibits, go on a scavenger hunt, participate in hands-on-activities, and experience early morning behind-the-scenes at the aquarium.  All of our sleepovers include a pizza dinner and a light breakfast. They start at 6:00 p.m. and end at 9:00 a.m. the next morning.
