What Can You Experience at the Shreveport Aquarium?

Dive into a world of wonder right on the Red River! Shreveport Aquarium is one of Louisiana’s most engaging family attractions—thoughtfully designed to be easy to explore, never overwhelming, and rich with hands-on experiences. Our aquarium focuses on close-up animal encounters, interactive exhibits and meaningful connections.

Guests of all ages can touch live sea creatures and engage with educators in our galleries who bring animal stories, science and conservation to life. Every visit is personal, interactive and designed to spark curiosity.

What Animals Can You See?

 

Our exhibits bring you face-to-fin with incredible species from around the world:

  • Sharks, seahorses, stingrays and eels gliding through tropical waters

  • Alligators and snapping turtles that call Louisiana wetlands home

  • Colorful reef fish in the Shipwreck and WOW galleries

  • Creepy-cool critters like tarantulas, tree frogs, snakes, axolotls and geckos

  • Plus, touch stingrays, moon jellies, sea stars, anemones and more! 

 

Throughout your visit, our friendly educators are ready to answer questions, share fun facts, and create hands-on learning moments that help guests of all ages understand why every creature—big or small—plays a vital role in our ecosystems.

Testimonials

The staff were all so friendly!! Both girls absolutely loved it! This is definitely something that can be enjoyed by the whole family no matter what their age is. We were able to get our pictures taken as a family bc the staff just came up to us and offered! Which we hardly are able to do so unless someone does so to have them offer was very much so appreciated by my husband and I. We LOVE this place!! Will have to go back again soon!
