Seattle Aquarium

The Seattle Aquarium is a nonprofit Aquarium committed to Earth’s one ocean. Our mission, Inspiring Conservation of Our Marine Environment, is reflected in everything we do, including our staff’s outstanding animal care work, our public programs centered on conservation education, research activities, policy and advocacy work, and more. We’re proud to be accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums.Located on Seattle’s historic central waterfront, the Seattle Aquarium is made up of three buildings: Piers 59 and 60 and the Ocean Pavilion, our newest expansion that opened in 2024 with a focus on the Coral Triangle—a region of the Indo-Pacific that’s rich in biodiversity. Together, our campus tells a powerful story about Earth’s connected waters and how, together, we can protect our marine environment from our beloved Salish Sea to across the Pacific in the Coral Triangle. We are the ninth largest aquarium in the U.S. by attendance and among the top five paid visitor attractions in the Puget Sound region. Since our opening, we’ve hosted over 27 million visitors and provided marine conservation education to over two million school children.
