Georgia Aquarium, Pemberton Place, Atlanta, Georgia, United States

The aquarium's animals are displayed in six different galleries: Georgia Explorer, Tropical Diver, Ocean Voyager, Cold Water Quest, River Scout, and Dolphin Tales. Each corresponds to a specific environment. To the left as one enters the aquarium is the Georgia Explorer exhibit, geared especially towards children. It features a number of touch tanks with rays and sharks as well as exhibits featuring sea turtles and the wildlife of Gray's Reef – a National Marine Sanctuary off the Georgia Coast.
The second exhibit, River Scout, also reflects regional environments. It features an overhead river where visitors can see North American fish from the bottom up. In addition to local specimens, this exhibit displays piranha, electric fish, and other unusual freshwater life.
Next to River Scout is the Dolphin Tales gallery. This is the aquarium's newest addition (opened in April, 2011) and houses the indoor dolphin stadium. The aquarium houses 11 bottlenose dolphins, though this number fluctuates from time to time. Currently, there are three dolphin shows per day. The show lasts about 20-30 minutes and includes an informative/educational videos about the dolphins 30 minutes prior to the show. Admission to the AT&T Dolphin Tales show requires purchasing an additional ticket. However, guests can see the dolphins during non-show times free of charge.
The fourth section of the aquarium, Cold Water Quest, features animals from the polar regions of the world and contains most of the mammals in the aquarium's collection. This exhibit includes beluga whales in the aquarium's second largest habitat, Japanese spider crabs, and African black-footed penguins.
