Beavertail Aquarium Season Opener

Date:

Join Park Naturalists for the first day of the 2024 season at Beavertail Aquarium! Enjoy tidepool tours, arts and crafts, walks with Archie the turtle, and more!

Housed in what was the foghorn house for the Beavertail Lighthouse, the tanks in the aquarium are displayed to simulate the environment of the Rhode Island shoreline. It’s a fun, free way to learn about the wide range of local marine life found in Narragansett Bay. From crabs πŸ¦€ to fish 🐟, shellfish πŸ¦ͺ β€” and even the occasional tropical visitors our local waters 🐠 β€” there's always something new to discover at the aquarium! Open daily from June to early November from 10:30AM to 4:30PM.

Event Type: Featured Naturalist Program
