Get ready for an ocean experience like no other at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. With your skip-the-ticket-line entry, step straight into a world filled with more than 12,000 incredible animals and over 100 dynamic exhibits, each bringing you face-to-face with the beauty and mystery of our ocean planet. Encounter playful sea otters, curious penguins, sleek sharks, mesmerizing sea jellies, vibrant frogs, and so much more as you explore the diverse habitats of the sunny Southern California coast, the chilly Northern Pacific, and the colorful reefs of the tropics.

Wander through engaging galleries and come eye-to-eye with the ocean’s ultimate predators in Shark Lagoon. Hand-feed lively lorikeet birds, watch Magellanic penguins glide through the water, and discover the immersive Pacific Visions experience. Here, the Honda Pacific Visions Theater surrounds you with an 8-minute multisensory film, projected on a massive 180-degree curved screen and floor disc, for a truly unique and inspiring journey beneath the waves.

Now open, Jelly Dreamscapes invites you to drift through a tranquil gallery filled with dozens of sea jellies from around the world. Admire their beauty and diversity as you move through meditative lighting and dream-like soundscapes. Explore species never before seen at the Aquarium and learn about the state-of-the-art care provided to these remarkable gelatinous creatures. Your visit ends in a central location, perfect for continuing your Long Beach adventure or relaxing by the waterfront.
