Celebrate Shark Week at SEA LIFE Minnesota

At SEA LIFE Minnesota, we live every week like it's shark week; but even so, a stop to the Aquarium is the perfect way to celebrate one of the most exciting weeks of the year! Now through Saturday, August 18 we'll be offering our guests a shark infested experience with even more cool artifacts, activities, and interesting shark facts!

Not to mention, we have a couple cool activities to check-out this week:


Wednesday, August 15, 8:00am - 1:00pm

Shark Week becomes bloodier than ever...

SEA LIFE Minnesota is helping the American Red Cross circle their prey by hosting a blood drive Wednesday, August 15 from 8 a.m. - 1 p.m. The blood drive will be held to help stem the tide of the constant need for blood. As an added incentive, anyone who donates blood will receive a voucher for a free admission to SEA LIFE Minnesota to use at anytime. To set the mood, SEA LIFE also will have a special tank with live sharks in the donor room.

SEA LIFE will be asking guests to go to www.sharksavers.org to learn about shark finning and its dangerous effects to the shark population and the ocean's eco-system. Shark finning has become increasingly popular due to shark fin soup which has decreased the population of sharks by as much as 90 percent in certain parts of the oceans during the last 20 years.
