Visit Clearwater Marine Aquarium to learn about all of the rescued and resident animals, fun for the entire family! Enjoy the views of Clearwater Bay from the harbor view deck and stranding deck. Discover a variety of animals including dolphins, pelicans, sea turtles, otters, sharks, and other animals. The majority of residents cannot be released due to a variety of reasons, so you can visit them in their permanent habitats and learn their stories. The presentations and talks throughout the day aim to educate you in a fun way about the work going on to take care of the marine life and the environment. 100% of your visit to Clearwater Marine Aquarium helps fund their vital mission of rescue, rehab, and release.
