Not only will guests get an inside glimpse into how our hammerheads are cared for in the 700,000 gallon shark encounter, they will also learn more about our smalltooth sawfish conservation efforts.

In this presentation, guests will be able to learn about the progress the pups have made within their first few months and have first access to the most recent updates.
Family Activity Zone Returns:
