The Flint RiverQuarium is a nature center and public aquarium in Albany that focuses on the habitats of the Flint River. Inside you will find fish, reptiles, and aquatic plants native to this river system in Southwest Georgia displayed in large tanks.
The facility was established in 2004 with the goal of helping visitors understand freshwater river habitats. It has served as an educational hub for learning about the local water ecosystems and their conservation needs.
