We’re spotlighting three of Central Florida’s top zoos and aquatic destinations—places where you can get up close with incredible water-loving animals and support conservation while you’re at it!

Here are our Top 3 Picks:

1. SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium (Orlando, FL)
ICON Park, International Drive
This fully indoor aquarium is a must-see for anyone fascinated by marine life.

Highlights:

  • 360° ocean tunnel with sharks, rays & sea turtles swimming overhead
  • Up-close encounters with seahorses, jellyfish, octopus, and more
  • Great for kids and families, with interactive touch zones and conservation stations

2. Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens (Sanford, FL)
Just north of Orlando
This beloved zoo combines land and aquatic habitats in one shady, walkable space.

Highlights:

  • Black bear boardwalk, rare reptiles, and native Florida wildlife
  • Wharton-Smith Tropical Splash Ground – perfect for kids on hot days
  • The Zoo’s Insect Zoo and Reptile House features frogs, turtles, and aquatic snakes

3. Clearwater Marine Aquarium (Clearwater, FL – worth the drive!)
About 2 hours from Central Florida, but a perfect day trip
A rescue and rehab center made famous by “Winter” the dolphin from Dolphin Tale.

Highlights:

  • Rescued dolphins, sea turtles, otters, and pelicans
  • Behind-the-scenes tours showing real marine animal care
  • Educational, heartwarming experience focused on marine conservation

Whether you’re a local or just visiting Central Florida, these spots are a great way to celebrate the water-loving world we’ve been highlighting every Thursday.

Thank you for swimming along with us through this series—we’ll still be posting wildlife sightings, aquatic facts, and unexpected pool guests (looking at you, raccoons).
