Sea Life Aquarium Shark Week

We LOVE going to Sea Life in Grapevine!  We go often and the BEST thing in my opinion that it is indoors so hot, cold, or wet – it’s still a perfect time!

It is much larger than it appears and has a ton of interactive stuff for the kids.  There are hands-on tanks and an interactive shark touch screen where you can learn more about them.  You can walk through a tube in the aquarium and watch everything including the sharks swim beneath and above you!

It’s a great time, every time we go!  We have taken adults and kids of all ages and everyone loves it.

Shark Week is coming and Sea Life is celebrating:

SEA LIFE Aquarium Grapevine will celebrate the Discovery Channel’s Shark Week from August 10-17, highlighting their expansive collection of 15 species of sharks.
