#1 – Loveland Living Planet Aquarium
Coming in at number one is the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium. Their animal feedings and encounters are a great way to interact with the animals, see their habitats, and have an up-close look. There’s a small fee if you want to feed the stingrays or visit the penguin exhibit, but they are totally worth it. When mom needs a Diet Coke or kids need a snack, head over to their full-service cafe. Get out, explore, and play this spring!
-Great for spring break!
-Open daily 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. (open until 8:00 p.m. on Monday nights)
-You will love the otter exhibit! You can watch them up close and personal as if you were an otter yourself. You can pop above and below the water just like them!
