Monsters of the Abyss at the Vancouver Aquarium

If you are looking for something fun to do this week, or throughout the summer, look no further than the Monsters of the Abyss exhibit at the Vancouver Aquarium. This exhibit takes a deep look at the creatures that are currently way down the depths as we speak, as well as the prehistoric ones that used to run the animal kingdom down there. Such as the megalodon, the largest shark to ever exist.

The exhibit is completely interactive, with many different activities for people of all ages. You can come face-to-face with supersized sculptures and can really feel the sheer mass of these ancient creatures. “Monsters” doesn’t just refer to these prehistoric beasts; however there are new snakes, monitors and other animals that are a part of this exhibit as well. The exhibit gives you the opportunity to join in on live talks with the aquarium’s animal experts, as they hold tours and give you in depth knowledge on the different areas of the abyss. They even bring out “modern-day dinosaurs” that roam the water and the land. As well as the live tours with the animal experts, you can also spend your time mesmerising over the plethora of fossils that the aquarium has acquired over time. They twist and bend through the whole exhibit and give you a true understanding of how massive these animals were back then. Can you imagine if they were still alive today?!

This exhibit is perfect for the curious people out there. The one-of-a-kind opportunity to see these animals up close is truly a sight to see, and even if this kind of stuff isn’t for you, I guarantee you that this event will open your mind. It will make you really start to wonder about all the mysterious animals that are on this world, the ones that were here long before us and the ones that will be here long after us. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, the animal experts find joy in curing all of our curiosity!

The Vancouver Aquarium is a great place for any sort of outing. Whether it’s with your family, a date, or just hanging out with your friends, you’ll be sure to have a good time with all there is to see there. I mean, come on, they have otters that play with toys in the water. How cool is that?
