Aquarium Education Program

Animal Encounter: Sea Otter

This two-hour experience will lead the guests through the Aquarium on a guided tour of many of our most exciting behind the scenes areas.  Guests will learn about what it takes to care for and feed the over 12,500 animals at the Aquarium of the Pacific and will even assist in feedings at a couple of our holding areas or at an exhibit.  After the tour, we will meet with marine mammal staff who will guide the group through food preparation for the Sea Otter exhibit.  Finally, we will enter the behind the scenes area of the habitat with a sea otter and watch/participate in a feeding and training session.

Availability: Saturdays and Sundays only.  12:30pm – 2:30pm. Reservations must be made in advance. 

Please note: Guests on this tour must wear closed-toed shoes. While behind the scenes of the sea otter exhibit, guests over 5’10” will need to watch their head.
