OdySea Aquarium, Public aquarium in Scottsdale, United States.
OdySea is a public aquarium in Scottsdale holding over 2 million gallons of water and housing more than 6,000 marine animals such as sharks, sea turtles, penguins, otters, and rays. The facility occupies a significant space within the Arizona Boardwalk entertainment complex with multiple themed exhibition areas.
The facility opened as Arizona's first aquarium with specialized certification for accessibility standards and inclusive visitor experiences. It was designed to meet current expectations for animal welfare and visitor comfort.
The facility serves as a place where visitors engage with ocean life through hands-on displays and learn why marine conservation matters for the world. You experience how different sea creatures depend on their habitats and understand their roles in the broader ecosystem.
The site is open daily throughout the day with complimentary parking available and dining options nearby within the entertainment complex. You can easily walk through the spaces, and the layout is designed so you can spend as little or as much time as you wish in each section.
The facility includes a rotating theater called Voyager with large viewing windows that moves visitors through different ocean zones. This rotating system lets you observe multiple marine environments from a central location without constantly changing positions.
