Create an itinerary including Texas State Aquarium

Texas State Aquarium, home to more than 330 animal species, hosts animal shows and educational programs as part of its mission as an animal rehabilitation facility. Many animals arrive here ill or hurt, receive treatment, and then are sent back into the wild. Peek in on many kinds of water critters, from jellyfish, eels, and crabs to stingrays--some of which you can pet--sharks, and dolphins. You'll also meet turtles, birds, frogs, and other animals. Ask about the dolphin presentations, too. Put Texas State Aquarium on your schedule, and learn what else deserves a visit by using our Corpus Christi trip website.

We visited the aquarium with a toddler and I was surprised by how much there was for him to see and do and how much space there was for him to explore. It's not a huge aquarium but it is much bigger..... more

We got there around noon and the line seemed long but, it was moving pretty quick. It was great. Honestly we went at the end of March the weather was beautiful, the people were nice, restrooms are clean, didn't buy any food. All the aquariums were clean, there were plenty of fish to see. The line at the little Starbucks was kinda long but the drinks were good just like pretty much any Starbucks. We had a blast. My family loved it. If you haven't been, I highly recommend it.

We enjoyed the dolphins show at 3 pm (two performances a day, another at 11 am). The salads at Shoreline Grill was great. The facility could accommodate special events and was designed for multiple purposes (including the splash park, which was not used when we visited). The 4D movie was nice (surprised to be the only viewers during the show). The whole experience was well worth the entrance fee. Highly recommend!
