Shreveport Aquarium, Public aquarium in Shreveport, Louisiana, US.
The Shreveport Aquarium is a facility with multiple gallery spaces that display different types of water life. The tanks were designed so visitors can explore various marine environments and the animals living in them.
The facility opened in 2017 along the Red River and made use of a long overlooked waterfront area. This marked an important moment for revitalizing that part of the city's waterfront.
The facility displays marine habitats through exhibits where visitors observe ocean creatures and their behavior in different water environments. Interactive sections help people understand how these animals live and interact with each other.
The visit is straightforward to plan since opening hours are regular and the building is easy to access. It is helpful to check ahead which areas are active on your visit day.
A special feature is the tunnel where visitors walk and watch large sharks pass overhead as they swim through the water column. This sensation of standing among the predators stays with you.
