Established in 2011 to protect and preserve aquatic and terrestrial animals and to educate the public about the importance of conserving our natural environment. The aquarium is home to a wide diversity of animals and marine creatures, ranging from lizards and iguanas to snakes, tortoises, sharks, pufferfish, rays, and freshwater turtles.
