A Mini-Aquarium with a Big Mission
Boca Aquarium is a boutique, kid-friendly aquarium located inside Diamonds by Raymond Lee in Boca Raton, Florida. Our goal is simple: make ocean learning fun, free, and accessible for all ages – whether you visit us in person or online. Here, children can meet real sharks, seahorses, coral reefs, and more, while learning how we care for them and protect their wild ocean homes.
