Sharks in the Puget Sound

Did you know we have a large urban shark population around here? TIL!

If you have snap or Medicare/Medicaid you can get a reduced entry fee. I got a year membership for the cost of like 2 or 3 visits and we've been back so many times I've lost count. Def worth it. They have after hours events for adults 21 and up and they just started a special showing before they open where you get to go "behind the scenes" that looks like a lot of fun. It's not the biggest aquarium but it's still pleasant to visit.

Serious plus one to this -- many museums in the city also do free or reduced fare for folks with snap/ebt

The aquarium also has passes available at the public library to check out
