My Review 

We really enjoyed the immersive environment at the Georgia Aquarium. There were a lot of ways to walk under, over, and through the exhibits to see animals up close. There are huge animals like whales, but also smaller ones like jellyfish that were equally mesmerizing for me and my children.

The photo is from the penguin habitat. Visitors can crawl through a small tunnel, then stand up inside an enclosed glass space within the habitat, to get really up close and personal with the penguins!
