(813) 273-4000The premise behind this exhibit is that you are a drop of water and you make the journey from the Florida aquifer bubbling out a spring, down a river, to a coastal estuary, under a highway bridge to the ocean shore, and finally out into the open ocean. Along the way you encounter the fish and small animals one would encounter in these environments. The main attractions being the open air aviary/woodland section and the main /deep ocean tank.
