          Charleston Aquarium

              The South Carolina Aquarium

Charleston’s South Carolina Aquarium is housed in a newly built facility on the shore of the Cooper River near the  downtown area. The aquarium’s exhibits and displays are designed to take visitors from the Mountains, through the Piedmont country to the coastal plain and salt marshes then into deep ocean habitat. An escalator ride to the second floor where the tour begins is made special by a sculpture of stylized aluminum birds that fly overhead, the length of the building. Displays are innovative, informative and entertaining. The mountains of South Carolina are interpreted in an open-to-the-elements arboretum on the Aquarium’s second level. When it rains outside, rain falls naturally through overhead screening onto a mountain forest.
