Get into the holiday spirit December 3 through 23, 2016, at the Aquarium during the month-long Aquarium Holidays celebration. Santa Diver will appear daily underwater in the Honda Blue Cavern. Aquarium Holidays also features a daily Penguin Walk at 10:00 a.m., a display of gingerbread houses made by Aquarium staff members and one created by a professional bakery, and free daily showings of Sleigh Ride 4D. Snow will fall in the Great Hall, the Aquarium will be decked with festive décor, and the Aquarium’s costumed characters will appear in their holiday outfits daily. Visitors can also enjoy holiday music, shopping, and a special holiday menu offered daily in Café Scuba. On weekends through December 23 the Aquarium will have a snow play area, children’s crafts, photo opportunities with Santa, and Hanukkah storytelling with opportunities to play dreidel. A tree-lighting ceremony will be held in the Aquarium’s Great Hall on December 1 to ring in the season.
Aquarium Holidays begins with the Holiday Treats for the Animals festival weekend on December 3 and 4, when Aquarium staff members will give special gift delicacies to penguins, otters, and other marine animals, and animal habitats will be specially decorated. Watch playful sea otters and other animals feast on their favorite treats, and enjoy all the Aquarium holiday festivities.
