Do you think that it is possible to find around 35,000 beautiful as well as strange sea creatures under one roof? I know you would say no. But the Monterey Bay Aquarium, located in a former sardine cannery on Cannery Row, a waterfront street in the New Monterey in Monterey, California, features more than this.The aquarium is an amazing work of art that combines nature and science. One can experience with ocean wildlife, without getting his feet wet.

Around 2 million people visit each year to see 35,000 plants and animals representing 623 species. Aquarium exhibit includes stingrays, jellyfish, sea otters, and numerous other native marine species, which can be viewed above and below the waterline. For displaying some rare seen see creatures like jellyfish, the MBA uses a circular aquarium called a Kreisel Tank. See otters are other major attraction there and Feeding time is a best retreat for visitors as well as otters.

Among the aquarium’s numerous exhibits, Aquarium has a 33-foot high tank in which the simulated tidal currents allow the Giant California Kelp to grow. The view is stunning through the world’s largest window a kelp forest and its inhabitants. The plant remains alive if it get electrifying by tidal waves. The waters off Monterey are especially productive as a current of cold water from deep down in the Pacific wells up here. The second exhibit of note is a one million gallon tank in the Outer Bay Wing that features the world’s largest single paned window.
