Endangered species come in all shapes and sizes, but share one thing in common: their importance to the biodiverse ecosystems they inhabit. At the Aquarium, we believe in uplifting the stories of these special species and protecting their populations within our walls and out in the field. So, whether they're scaley, crawly, feathered or furred, we hope you leave your visit with us empowered to protect them. Make a difference in the wellbeing of these critical species by donating items from our Amazon Gift Registry. Each item is used to provide specialized medical care, habitat enrichment and more for all of our animals, and can make a critical impact in keeping these creatures thriving 💙 Give today: scaqarium.org/wishlist 🐢 #endangeredspeciesday All sea turtle conservation work is authorized by the SC Department of Natural Resources Marine Turtle Permit No. 2025-0004 (fb)

“Be where your feet are.” For 25 years, we’ve stood proudly as a local landmark, a haven of happiness and a wonder of wildlife. We’ve connected residents and tourists alike to thousands of animals, inspired conservation of the natural world and returned 453 rehabilitated sea turtles back to the wild. Now, on our #25thAnniversary, our feet are facing forward. With the words of Marcus Amaker’s “Fluid” echoing in our hearts, we’re reminded of the many stepping stones that brought us here, to a milestone of renewed commitment in connecting our community with water, wildlife and wild places. As we step into the next 25 years, we’re grateful to each and every person who has supported us along the way. From our heart to yours, here’s to #25years 💙 Happy birthday, Aquarium.
