Newport Aquarium showcases thousands of aquatic creatures from around the world in a million gallons of water. Newport Aquarium was named the No. 1 aquarium in the 2012 Readers Choice Travel Awards from 10Best.com. A state-of-the art facility, the Newport Aquarium brings to the banks of the Ohio River some of the world's most advanced, creative technology -- not to mention amazing animals -- all designed to take you around the globe, visiting each continent, every ocean and hundreds of waterways in between. While exploring guests have the opportunity to pet a shark, play in the interactive frog bog and even pet a penguin during the Penguin Encounter. The newest, most exciting addition is the Shark Ray Bay where visitors can learn about the four, extremely rare Shark Rays on display Sweet Pea, Scooter, Sunshine and Spike. Dive shows in the Surrounded By Sharks exhibit is excitement for the whole family as divers talk from underwater and even answer questions.
