Sharks! Feeding and Conservation Tour

Get up close with one of the most common shark species in Key West: Nurse Sharks. These tropical sharks are known to inhabit the Gulf and Atlantic coasts of Florida and are commonly found in the waters of the Key West coral reef.

On this shark tour, you’ll learn fascinating facts about this unique species and how we can help protect them. At the end of the tour, 10 lucky guests will have the opportunity to feed one of the nurse shark residents!

Sea Turtle Conservation Tour

The Key West Aquarium is committed to helping endangered sea turtles by working closely with Turtle Hospital and the Florida Sea Turtle Standing Network. Home to many turtles on the mend, the Key West Aquarium takes care of injured sea turtles, of which many will be permanently housed at the aquarium due to the severity of their injuries.

Here, you’ll be able to admire the beauty of sea turtles and learn more about them as creatures as well as what we can do to help protect them.
