National Aquarium

- Baltimore
Baltimore's National Aquarium is a major Inner Harbor destination for exploring aquatic life and the connections between water habitats.

Displays range from ocean environments to a rain forest setting, creating an indoor route that works well for visitors interested in wildlife and conservation.
Reserve an entry time and leave room to move slowly through the exhibits. Behind-the-scenes experiences and other additions have separate arrangements. Combine the aquarium with a walk beside the harbor, but check the operator's accessibility and visitor guidance before planning a group visit.
