Located in the Flats West Bank near downtown Cleveland, Greater Cleveland Aquarium is just steps away from the Cuyahoga River. Distressed brick walls, exposed ductwork, and reimagined coal chutes juxtapose Northeast Ohio's industrial past with the Aquarium's conservation focus.
Immersive galleries transport curious guests to local waterways and faraway oceans. Many exhibits are freestanding and offer 180- to 360-degree views perfect for little ones. Highlights include touching stingrays in an 11,000-gallon touch pool or walking in a 175-foot underwater sea tube through a 230,000-gallon shark exhibit.
See scuba divers, feedings, and close-up animal encounters throughout the day. In addition, the Aquarium offers live and interactive Educator-led online programming if you can't visit.
If your family would enjoy seeing a sea star's tiny tube feet in action, watching a garden eel retreat into its burrow, counting the suckers on the arm of an octopus, or examining the toothy grin of a sand tiger shark gliding overhead, take a closer look at Greater Cleveland Aquarium.
Nature. It's a curious thing.
