Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk, Public aquarium in Norwalk, United States
The Maritime Aquarium spans 140,000 square feet, containing 2,700 marine animals from 300 species in environments replicating Long Island Sound habitats.
The facility opened in July 1988 as the Maritime Center, transforming a former industrial area into an educational institution focused on marine science.
