School Year AquaCamps
When school is out, the Aquarium is in!
Days off during the school year provide even more opportunities for fun and learning (Emphasis on the fun!). Day camps, offered during select days off, include animal encounters, science experiments, exploration time in the Aquarium, crafts and, weather permitting, time at The Splash Pad.
- School Year AquaCamps are designed for children ages 5-11 in kindergarten through grade 5.
- Camps run from 9 AM-4 PM.
- Morning care from 8-9 AM as well as afternoon care from 4-5 PM is included in the cost of the camp.
The 2023-2024 calendar is available on this page and by clicking the registration link below.
