The Ripley's Aquarium
During your visit to Ripley's Aquarium, you'll experience many interactive, up close and personal exhibits. Ripley's Aquarium has something for the whole family!
See the world from a different angle when you visit Ripley's Aquarium in Myrtle Beach. In Ripley's Reef Tunnel, you will be surrounded by 11-foot sharks, piranhas and other creatures of the deep. In Rainbow Rock, you will be amazed by the 51,000 gallon recreation of a Pacific coral reef, home to beautiful coral and hundreds of tropical fish. Stroll through the freshwater Rio Amazon, where you can get up-close with a Pacifica Giant Octopus, living coral, sea horses, and piranha. If you're looking for a hands-on experience, you won't want to miss the Sea-for-Yourself Discover Center where you can touch a horseshoe crap, or Ray Bay where you can pet a string ray. In addition, dive shows and educational classes are presented every hour at Ripley's Aquarium so you can learn more about how sea creatures live. This is a must-see that your whole family will enjoy.
