Diving is an awesome activity that allows you to explore the water’s depths and all the mysteries held there. Unfortunately, there are times when your dive trip doesn’t yield any fascinating creatures for you to enjoy. If you want to be sure that your dive will be filled with marine life, you should consider visiting one of the many aquariums you can dive into.

The Florida Aquarium – Tampa, Florida

Shark enthusiasts will enjoy this interactive experience that allows you to dive with various large sharks, barracuda, moray eels, sea turtles, and much more in water that is always at a comfortable temperature and crystal clear. Each guest is paired with their own personal dive master to ensure their safety during the dive. All necessary diving gear will be provided for you, and participants must bring their diver certification card with them. Friends and family who are not diving can watch your dive from the exhibit gallery. Following your dive, you may purchase underwater photos taken during your experience.

Downtown Aquarium – Denver, Colorado

Enjoy diving with the fish in this 200,000-gallon aquarium bursting with marine life. You will most likely first notice the 400-pound grouper before moving on to the nurse sharks, sea turtles, stingrays, moray eels, and hundreds of other fascinating and beautiful creatures. All diving equipment will be provided for you, and you must have a valid SCUBA certification card to participate.

National Aquarium – Baltimore, Maryland

Divers can explore an authentic fabricated coral reef teeming with over 500 colorful exotic fish in this 335,000-gallon aquarium. Bonnethead sharks, green moray eels, and porcupine fish comprise just a few inhabitants. Professional dive staff work with each participant before the dive. You must be at least 18 years old and SCUBA-certified to participate.

These are just a few examples of aquariums you can dive into across America. Any of these will provide a fun diving adventure and the perfect opportunity to show your diving friends and family a great time.
