1000s of marine animals, educational classes, interaction with the animals, dive shows and a 330 foot glide path.
A world-class facility with over 6,000 fish on display, Ripley’s Aquarium is South Carolina’s most visited attraction. Winner of South Carolina’s “Governor’s Cup” for excellence, Ripley’s Aquarium is located at “Broadway at the Beach”, Myrtle Beach’s premiere entertainment, dining and shopping complex.
The highlight of any visit is the aquarium’s 650,000 gallon “Dangerous Reef” where you ride a 330' glidepath coming face to face with huge, deadly 10' sharks, 11’ sawfish and hundreds of other fascinating reef dwellers. Over 1,000 colorful and exotic fish inhabit “Rainbow Rock”, an incredible Pacific reef re-creation. Exotic Scorpion Fish & Leafy and Weedy Sea Dragons, Amazonian piranha, giant Pacific octopus, huge rays and hundreds of other exciting marine creatures are displayed in environments that reflect the diversity of our oceans. At Ripley’s Aquarium you can also pet a stingray, hold a horseshoe crab and enjoy hourly dive shows.
