Experiences At Vancouver Aquarium

Our Wet Lab is open seven days a week — hours vary by day. Please check the whiteboard outside the Wet Lab for opening hours.

This children’s area is where children learn by play to wonder at and care for our oceans.

Roll up your sleeves and prepare to get your hands cold and wet.

The Vancouver Aquarium is happy that the Photo Experience has returned. Have a souvenir to remember your time at the Aquarium connecting with the incredible!
