The National Aquarium in Baltimore is a world-class aquatic institution dedicated to environmental education and stewardship.
Its living collection includes more than 11,000 animals from more than 600 species of fish, birds, amphibians, reptiles and marine mammals that live in award-winning, recreated habitats. Opened on August 8, 1981, the Aquarium played a key role in helping to transform Baltimore's Inner Harbor from a blighted port area to a thriving attraction for tourists and residents. Today the Aquarium is one of the most-visited destinations in Maryland.
In December 1990, the Aquarium opened its Marine Mammal Pavilion on the pier adjacent to the main building. The Pavilion is home to the Aquarium's Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, an eatery, gift shop and several educational interactive stations. In late 2005, the Aquarium will open its largest expansion ever. The new building will house the impressive new exhibit Animal Planet Australia: Wild Extremes, highlighting Australia's Northern Territory; the Old Bay Café and Aquarium Shop. Outdoors, visitors will also simulate a journey from Maryland's Eastern Shore to the Allegheny Mountains in the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Waterfront Park.
