## About

SEA LIFE Michigan Aquarium, adjacent to LEGOLAND Discovery Center, features Michigan's only 360-degree underwater ocean tunnel. Children can look up at sand tiger sharks, green sea turtles, and rays swimming overhead, and in the interactive tidal touch pool, they can gently touch starfish, sea urchins, and hermit crabs. The exhibit design is tailored for young explorers, with thoughtfully low observation windows. The entire path is a flat, one-way route, very convenient for strollers, and includes a parent-child lounge and family restrooms. The aquarium's dim blue, dreamlike lighting and gentle ocean sounds are also particularly friendly for very young children, with a typical visit lasting 1.5 to 2 hours.
