Overview

The animals of the Aquarium of the Pacific are looking forward to welcoming you back! Take a journey of discovery at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. Discover sunny Southern California and Baja, the frigid waters of the Northern Pacific, and the colorful reefs of the Tropical Pacific.

Boasting more than 100 exhibits and 19 major habitats, a visit to the aquarium is entertaining and educational in equal measure. You’ll come face-to-face with and even touch the ocean’s ultimate predators in Shark Lagoon, hand-feed colorful lorikeet birds, and watch the Magellanic Penguins play. You’ll also learn about how to conserve and help these fascinating animals and our planet.

What's more, you'll discover Pacific Visions where you explore underwater realms and learn about our oceans. The centerpiece, Honda Pacific Visions Theater, plays two films throughout the day with multisensory effects. The theater houses a massive 180-degree curved screen and floor projection disc. You and your fellow viewers will have your full range of vision encompassed, creating a uniquely immersive experience, which is further enhanced by extra special effects such as seat rumblers.

Staff made the itinerary feel effortless. Transitions between rooms or stops felt purposeful, would recommend budgeting a little buffer after for souvenirs. (Would pair nicely with a light lunch nearby.)

We’d happily do this again. Venue matched the vibe in the listing description, worth blocking a half-day for. (Afternoon crowds were predictable.)
