World Aquarium Wildlife Conservation and Sustainable-Living Tour (WCSTL)

Cost: $50 per person

RECOMMENDED FOR PARTICIPANTS AGE 6 AND UP.

MINIMUM AGE WITHOUT PARENT: 12 years

We have found that, while there is interest in being “green,” but few people see the connection between their daily actions and the effects they may have on the ocean. Moreover, the meaning of “sustainability” and living a sustainable lifestyle is nebulous to many. The World Aquarium introduces a new tour based on market research aimed to the public about our conservation based operation emerging global issues and to better understand today’s present opportunities at the Aquarium. The “World Aquarium Wildlife Conservation and Sustainable Living Tour” will give traditional animal and habitat information, but will also address challenges to each type of ecosystem within the continent it is located. As specific effects affect different ecosystems in its own unique way, the tour is aimed at educating consumers about specific challenges locally, nationally and worldwide and suggesting actions which will help ameliorate negative environmental effects through personalized actions.

We are offering the WCSTL tour at the following days and times:

Monday-Friday: 9:30am
Saturday-Sunday: 1:00pm

The Extreme Adventure Tour (EAT) tour is not for little sissies who will only touch cute furry animals. Only those who are courageous and who want to live life to the fullest should attend.  Attack your deepest fears head-on by experiencing the scariest, slimiest and creepiest animals that live within the World Aquarium.  Touch and interact with tarantulas, scorpions, stingrays, sharks, cockroaches, millipedes and many more freaky creatures.

The EAT Tour also focuses on who eats what, who and what they eat, and how who eats what. Participants will see many animals eating, see various methods of how animals capture their food, and will be able to feed some of the animals (sharks, stingrays, snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, frogs, chameleons, anemone fish, cichlids, turtles, kinkajous, and more) which will vary depending upon the day and time of the EAT program. Visitors can even be food to some of our animals (feeding the doctor fish dead skin from the participants’ fingers).

Participants will receive a complimentary fossilized shark tooth necklace as a memento of your new courageous identity.
