Have you ever wondered about all of the creatures that live in Earth's oceans? We may not see them but they are definitely there and they contribute to the overall health of the planet. At this New Hampshire aquarium in Glen, you'll get the chance to see, touch, and learn more about the life that inhabits the sea.
Covering over 32,000 square feet, Living Shores Aquarium in Glen features a plethora of exhibits and activities to both witness and learn about the aquatic life in the environment around us.
Interactive tide pools let visitors get up close and personal with many varieties of sea life. Fun educational programs and freshwater exhibits broaden the experience.
While at the aquarium, visit one of the touch pools and reach in to touch Cow Nose Rays, Atlantic Stingrays, Yellow Stingrays, and Atlantic Guitarfish.
In another pool you can touch sharks without having to be in the ocean! Get up close to White Spotted Bamboo Sharks, Brown Banded Bamboo Sharks, Epaulette Sharks, and Coral Catsharks.
Meet and learn about some residents of the ocean that walk the sandy bottom rather than swim in the cold waters.
Living Shores' otter exhibit is where you'll meet Harry, Teddy, Peanut, Jelly, and Saco, the resident Asian small-clawed otters. These curious critters may be as interested in you as you are in them!
