One of the highlights of our the trip was our time at the Georgia Aquarium. This aquarium is second to none. The main tank named the Ocean Voyager is the size of a football field approximately 125 feet in width by 263 feet in length with the depth of 33 feet. I was told the Ocean Voyager tank holds 6.2 million gallons of water. All told there are over 8 million gallons of water within the aquarium. There are three whale sharks in the Ocean Voyager tank along with many other fish. Watching the whale sharks swim from the back of the tank into view is quite a sight. If you are interested in aquariums this is a must see if you are in the Atlanta area. The penguin area contains a very unique popup viewing opportunity within the exhibit giving the individuals the feeling they are part of the exhibit. The penguins also seemed to enjoy the experience of viewing the visitors from this angle.
