About Boca Aquarium

Small Aquarium, Big Ocean Discoveries

Welcome to Boca Aquarium, a boutique mini aquarium in Boca Raton, Florida dedicated to making ocean learning free, fun, and accessible for kids and families.

Our exhibits are located inside Diamonds by Raymond Lee, blending the beauty of marine life with a unique community space. Whether you visit in person or join us online, we’re here to spark curiosity and inspire the next generation of ocean protectors.

Our Mission

At Boca Aquarium, our mission is simple:

To connect kids with the wonders of the ocean—one fun fact, feeding show, and hands-on activity at a time.

We believe every child should have the chance to meet a shark, watch a seahorse, and learn about coral reefs without the barrier of high ticket prices. That’s why admission is always free and our online resources are available to anyone, anywhere

What You’ll See

Our small but mighty exhibits feature a variety of marine life, each with its own story to tell:

- Watch our resident sharks glide through the tank and see them eat during our live shark feeding shows every Saturday and Wednesday.
- Learn why seahorse dads carry the babies in their special brood pouch.
- Discover vibrant reef fish, clownfish, tangs, and the live corals that build their colorful underwater homes.
- Meet one of the most fascinating creatures in our collection.

Every exhibit is designed to be educational, interactive, and memorable—perfect for young explorers.
