Beside the Red River near the Texas Street Bridge, Shreveport Aquarium focuses on close encounters with aquatic life. Its galleries and educator-led interpretation offer a compact wildlife experience that can be combined with time along the city's riverfront.
Check current admission and activity information before travelling. Follow staff guidance at any touch or feeding experience, and confirm which interactions are available rather than assuming every advertised activity is offered throughout the day.
