The wonders of nature are some of the greatest gifts to share with family and friends. During Holidays Under the Peaks the Aquarium offers specially-themed programs each week, in addition to more than one dozen daily Extraordinary Experiences, free with Aquarium admission or membership. Meet the feisty Peacock Mantis Shrimp with bright colors that rival any holiday décor. Guests will be encouraged to touch moon jellies, get close to a jolly ‘possum and catch special readings of the Cajun Night Before Christmas while surrounded by alligators. Scuba Claus will be making special underwater appearances in the River Journey building each weekend from Nov. 21 through December 20. You might also see jolly otters playing with snowmen or an octopus playing with festive toys during special enrichment activities.
