AQUARIUM OF THE BAY




Description

Essentials about the Aquarium of the Bay in brief

Anyone interested in the underwater world of San Francisco Bay and the rivers that feed it should head to the Aquarium of the Bay. Located at The Embarcadero at the end of Pier 39, visitors can expect to see over 60,000 fish from more than 250 species, including more than 50 species of sharks. The main attraction of the Aquarium of the Bay are the two 110-meter-long underwater tunnels that lead through two huge aquariums with a capacity of more than 2.5 million liters. Here, sharks, manta rays and many other species do their rounds above the heads of visitors. Besides just observing them, the aquarium also gives you the opportunity to touch some of the fish, such as eagle rays, leopard sharks, starfish and sea cucumbers.
