Covering the U.S. and Canada, this compact guide lists aquariums by city and state or province and gives explicit, easy-to-follow instructions on how to find each, either by car or by public transportation. It describes the major aquatic displays and programs, as well as giving the hours of openings, admission and parking fees, availability of food and housing in the vicinity, and a brief history for each aquarium. Whenever available, accessibility to restrooms and exhibits for the physically disabled are listed. It also provides the full official name of the aquarium, its address, telephone number, and contacts for further information.
