The Aquarium’s Canada’s Arctic gallery tells the story of the animals, land and people that call the Arctic home through cutting-edge technology and mesmerizing animals. The chilly waters in the Arctic are bursting with colour, and we’ve collected some of the most interesting marine animals from that region.
From the upper level of our Canada's Arctic gallery you can view magestic belugas glide through pristine water.
Our Treasures of the BC Coast exhibit features a sampling of marine habitats along British Columbia’s coast. Large, scenic photos set the scene for each habitat, where animals that live there are on display. This exhibit is also home to the iconic Pacific giant octopus, as well as surprisingly colourful cold-water corals.
Be amazed, engaged and inspired by the Our World exhibit within the Canaccord Financial Exploration Gallery, which introduces the world of the Aquarium and the exhibits within.
The Pacific Canada Pavilion spans two levels and focuses on the fascinating marine life just outside Vancouver’s front door. From the upper level guests can get an above-surface view of the incredible diversity of the Strait of Georgia exhibit.
From the Pacific Canada Pavilion's lower level guests can come face to face with the halibut, crabs and rockfish that live there.
The Wild Coast is home to two rescued Pacific white-sided dolphins, two orphaned sea otters, two rehabilitated harbour porpoises, rescued harbour seals, sea lions and much more.
From fascinating clown anemonefish to sleek blacktip reef sharks, life and colour are abound in the Tropic Zone. This gallery focuses on warm water animals from all over the world, including Africa, Madagascar, Central America and other biodiversity hotspots.
Go behind the scenes in our Wet Lab, an interactive learning centre. See and possibly touch marine animals such as crabs, sea anemones, sea stars, sea urchins and sea cucumbers.
