Aquarium of Niagara

We are a public non-profit aquarium. With our community and partners, we celebrate our natural wonders and inspire people to make a difference for aquatic life.

Nothing beats a view like this from just outside Great Lakes 360 as a nice reminder of the incredible ecosystem we have right in our backyard on #worldhabitatday!

The Aquarium is reopened following our seasonal maintenance and admission is $5 OFF as the sea lions remain off-exhibit.
