Ripley's Aquarium Gatlinburg + 2 or 3 Attractions

About this experience

Ripley's Aquarium Gatlinburg Tickets This ticket is admission to Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies, one of Gatlinburg's finest aquarium experiences, with the option to add two or three further Ripley's attractions for a full day out. The aquarium's team cares for all resident marine animals on site, and guests explore the exhibits as part of a self-guided visit during normal opening hours. The centrepiece of the visit is the Shark Lagoon tunnel, where sharks, rays, and other marine predators glide overhead and around you as you walk through. The Penguin Playhouse houses a colony of penguins in a specially designed habitat, where you can watch their playful behaviour up close. At the interactive Ray Bay exhibit, guests may touch gentle stingrays under the supervision of the aquarium's staff. Living coral displays showcase colourful reef fish, and educational displays throughout the venue focus on marine conservation and ocean ecosystems.
