SHARK LAGOON: The 10,000 square-foot, outdoor Shark Lagoon offers visitors the opportunity to touch and interact with bamboo, epaulette, and zebra sharks. The exhibit allows guests to get nose-to-nose with large, toothy sharks. Sand tiger, nurse, white-tip, and black-tip reef sharks and rays are featured in the exhibit. In addition to the 90,000-gallon shark touch-pools and exhibit, interactive displays, including a giant water-squirting squid, allow children of all ages to have fun while learning about defenses certain animals use to avoid shark attacks.
