Clearwater Marine Aquarium

Marine Life Center · Clearwater, Florida

A working marine animal hospital that happens to admit visitors, rather than an aquarium that also does rescue — the distinction matters and the place insists on it. It became internationally known through Winter, a bottlenose dolphin who lost her tail in a crab trap line, was fitted with a prosthetic and became the subject of the film Dolphin Tale.

249 Windward Passage, Clearwater, Florida, 33767, United States

Open daily, generally 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Presentation and boat tour schedules are posted at the entrance.
