Description

Step right up for aquatic fun you won’t find anywhere else! Inside the 46,000-square-foot Aquarium at the Boardwalk, one of Branson, Missouri’s newest attractions, you’ll be mesmerized by an undersea journey through the ocean depths. Experience up-close views of colorful fish, sharks, seahorses, octopi, and more. You’ll find plenty of entertaining activities, too, like choreographing the colors in the jellyfish infinity room as you watch these bioluminescent beings and climbing through a kelp forest play zone designed especially for kids.

A larger-than-life giant Octopus sculpture greets you at the front door. It’s modeled after Aquarius, a giant Pacific octopus, and one of the Aquarium’s exclusive characters. Inside, stroll down the boardwalk and explore ten zones of fish and fun.

Take a 5D submarine ride to the bottom of the ocean, guided by Aquarius the Octopus and Finn the Pufferfish. Surround yourself with the sea as you walk through a tunnel right in the heart of the Aquarium and into a sunken ancient city. You’ll be thrilled with sightings of a variety of sharks and all kinds of uniquely striped and patterned fish as they swim circles all around you.

Get a vast view of a gorgeous coral reef, teeming with tropical marine life, and catch a final glimpse of the sharks and rays that come gliding overhead. Discover a magical underwater palace where heroic mermaids safeguard the ocean’s coral reefs, and marvelous coral species that create a home for so many treasured animals. Take some time to watch as fish travel in and around the corals and peek through the nooks and crannies of their colorful forms.

"Gem in downtown Branson, MO."

Reviewed June 09, 2025 NEW

Surprised to find this level of an aquarium in Branson, Missouri. Rivals many better known aquariums we have visited. Kids of all ages will love it. I would allow at least 2 hours for this visit.

"It's Okay..."

Reviewed June 06, 2025 NEW

Very expensive for what you actually see, but gave us something to do out of the rain while we were in town. The staff could have been a little more friendly also.

"We were expecting more"

Reviewed June 06, 2025 NEW

Caution - a small section of this attraction will be disorientating for some people with claustrophobia. We enjoyed the aquarium but thought it would be bigger. Very interesting though. There is another aquarium within 50 miles which is larger and more detailed. All in all and given the proximity to the “strip” the kids will enjoy it.

So much fun! Well designed with beautiful displays. We enjoyed our time in the aquarium very much. We have been to multiple aquariums over the years, and this one ranked high on our list.
