Clearwater Marine Aquarium welsomes visitors to learn about the aquarium’s mission to preserve the environment and its marine life. CMA is home to rescued dolphins, sea turtles, river otters, stingrays, and more. Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a working marine rescue center dedicated to inspiring the human spirit through leadership in education, research, rescue, rehabilitation and release.
Clearwater Marine Aquarium has been working diligently to restore the facility in the aftermath of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Thanks to its dedicated staff, skilled contractors, and generous donations from supporters both near and far, they’re making significant progress in recovery efforts! While there’s still a long way to go, they take pride in what has been accomplished since the storms.
