Santa Monica Pier Aquarium

Included
Entry with the Go Los Angeles Card
Get a spiny hug from a sea urchin, feel a knobby sea star or sticky sea anemone, and experience the sea water spray of a swell shark when you visit the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium. The aquarium, operated by the environmental organization Heal the Bay, is home to some 100 species of organisms, including moray eels, octopus, sharks, rays, and a variety of fish and invertebrates–all examples of the animals found just a short stroll away in the Santa Monica Bay. The popular shark-themed Sundays include shark related arts and crafts, story time, films and a presentation and feeding at the shark tank. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and volunteers enrich the hands-on experience at this compact aquarium, where the wonder of discovery of the marine environment inspires conservation and stewardship.
Note: The aquarium closes periodically for special events; please call before arriving to verify hours of operation.
