About Georgia Aquarium

Located in Atlanta, USA, Georgia Aquarium is one of the world’s largest and most fascinating aquariums. It opened in 2005, thanks to a generous donation from Home Depot’s co-founder Bernie Marcus. At that time, it was the largest aquarium in the world, and even today, it remains one of the top marine attractions globally.


The aquarium is home to over 100,000 animals across 500 species, including giant whale sharks, beluga whales, manta rays, sea lions, and jellyfish. With millions of visitors every year, it’s not just a tourist spot, but also an educational and research center for marine conservation.


If you’re planning a US trip, don’t forget to explore our USA Tour Packages that cover all the top attractions, including this iconic aquarium. It’s a great addition to any international itinerary, especially for families and ocean lovers.
