Children's Aquarium at Fair Park
Dallas

Come see the “greatest hits” of the sea at the Children’s Aquarium at Fair Park. Kids will love viewing sharks, jellyfish, eels, rays, piranhas, turtles, clown fish, and other species from popular movies and books. The child-friendly design offers interactive exhibits for hands-on exploration, with a Coastal touch pool filled with horseshoe crabs, sea stars, sea urchins, anemones, and other creatures. Venture to the outdoor pavilion to visit Stingray Bay, where guests can feed and interact with cownose rays and small bamboo sharks in a touch pool. Nearby, they can watch Southern stingrays and zebra, bonnethead, and other sharks swimming in a larger pool.

The Aquarium offers daily feeding demonstrations at 2:30 p.m. Guests can feed animals in Stingray Bay daily. Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for children 3 to 11, and free for children age 2 and younger. The Aquarium is located at 1462 First Ave. in the shadow of the Texas Star Ferris wheel.
