This fall, guests visiting Adventure Aquarium can explore the glow deep below as they dive into an underwater realm filled with gorgeous glowing gourds of all shapes, sizes, and species during the Aquarium’s brand-new Fintastic Fall Days, running NOW – November 5.
During this fall festival, guests will get the chance to see countless gourd-geous aquatically-themed displays showcased throughout the Aquarium, both floating on the surface and sunken deep below among sharks, rays, and other aquatic animals.
In addition to the fall-themed sights, guests can also check out the Aquarium’s seasonal sensory tables featuring pumpkin slime and other hands-on sensory experiences – all included with admission. For an extra special experience, guests can pay $5 to paint and take home their own pumpkin masterpiece. The Aquarium’s gift shop will also be selling a variety of pumpkin-themed souvenirs.
Visitors looking to learn more can dive deeper into their aquatic knowledge by checking out the Aquarium’s “What Goes Bump in the Midnight Zone” show, which demystifies the animals living in the dark depths of the ocean’s Midnight Zone.
