Exhibits:
ALL-NEW PENGUIN PARADE DAILY
Practice makes penguins perfect and our feathered friends have had plenty of time to properly perfect our parade! Staying at home at the Penguin Playhouse earlier this year left Ripley’s colony with a lot of time on their flippers—time spent practicing something very special for your next visit! Join Ripley’s colony of African penguins as they parade around the Aquarium, eager to meet you and say hello to our other aquatic pals!
RIO AMAZON
Rio Amazon recreates the primeval, lush world of the rainforest.
Rainforests are some of Earth’s oldest living ecosystems, some surviving for at least 70 million years! Discover the animals that inhabit these tropical forests, like freshwater stingrays, poison dart frogs, armored catfish, arapaima, and piranhas.
FRIENDSHIP FLATS
In this shallow lagoon, guests can reach out and touch rays as they glide by.
Don’t worry! Their skin is smooth and touching them will not hurt you or the rays. Rays do, however, have strong jaws in their mouths, so stick to touching these beautiful animals on their dark top sides!
WELCOME TO PLANET JELLIES
Go out-of-this-word just by visiting Ripley’s Aquarium of Myrtle Beach! With thousands of jellies surrounding you, backlit and color-changing displays, and some of the most fascinating animals on Earth, this transfixing gallery is sure to mesmerize.
THE INDO-PACIFIC CORAL REEF
The bright colors of the rainbow are found underwater in the Indo-Pacific coral reef. View thousands of intricately colored fish from the tropical islands of the Pacific Ocean as they swim around and through this delicate reef structure.
DANGEROUS REEF
Filled with thousands of fish of every shape and size, Dangerous Reef is Ripley’s Aquarium of Myrtle Beach’s largest and most popular exhibit. Leisurely travel on a moving 340-foot long glidepath, as you wind your way through the acrylic tunnel and come face to face with snappers, tarpons, grunts, squirrelfish, green sea turtles, giant stingrays, sawfish, and very large SHARKS! So close and clear that you will feel like you’re swimming with them!
DISCOVERY CENTER
Ripley’s Aquarium of Myrtle Beach guests can experience the thrill of holding horseshoe crabs at the Discovery Center, an interactive, multimedia playground and educational center that fascinates children and adults of all ages. Filled with fun and interactive displays, the Discovery Center invites you to learn by participation. You can solve puzzles, test your knowledge against the experts and your friends.
LIVING GALLERY
The Living Gallery is a collection of delicate undersea life, including the Pacific giant octopus, sea anemones, living corals, jellies, and weedy sea dragons.
Coral reefs are a vibrant underwater oasis, which provide protection to all types of marine life. Some of the “plants” that flow back and forth in the currents are not plants at all, they are actually animals. View many of these plant-like animals that depend on the sun for nutrition such as the giant clam, hammer corals, and brain corals to name a few.
RAY BAY
Gliding through the water like majestic birds in the air, rays are gentle creatures. In the wild, they spend most of their lives buried in the sand, out of the view of predators and divers. At the Aquarium, they relish the spotlight, and will even eat out of the hands of our divers! Watch as divers enter the tank and hand feed these large, but gentle giants.
At the shallow end of the tank, visitors may take the opportunity to touch and get up close and personal with these beautiful creatures.
