The Birch Aquarium




Smaller and more intimate than other aquariums, the

Birch Aquarium is one place where you can get close

to all of the animals, and still take your time to

simply enjoy being there.



Due to its intimacy, adults and children alike are

energized by the aquarium. You can watch an

octopus flow up and down the glass, or watch a

jellyfish move slowly through the water. This is

an excellent thrill, for everyone in your family.



The most popular exhibit at the Birch Aquarium is

the sea horse exhibit. It offers many different

species, from the tiny miniature sea horses that

are under an inch tall, to the taller and more

amazing sea dragons.



The many interactive exhibits at the aquarium will

help you lean the history of oceanography. By

taking a simulated trip in a deep water submersible,

you'll learn the wonders and oddities of the deep

ocean, even though it may move a bit too slow for

smaller children. Children of all ages enjoy

the exhibits that illustrate how the ocean products

appear in every day items.



If you are planning to take pictures of the exhibits,

be aware of the glass and the reflections. If you

can, move in close (around a foot away) and set

your flash to a 45 degree angle. Make sure that

you don't get too wrapped up in taking photo's

inside the aquarium - as you may end up missing

the show going on outside.



If you are visiting La Jolla as a vacation or if

you live there, the Birch Aquarium is worth a

visit. There are some amazing exhibits here, with

something for everyone. You can spend hours and

hours here, making it one place you shouldn't

hesitate to check out.
