A Unique Nurse Shark Interaction for All Ages
This Marathon, Florida shark feeding encounter enables guests to interact with the nurse sharks in a one-on-one basis and safely handle the sharks as they swim in and around the tank
During this encounter, our professional Marine Biologists are constantly on-hand to assist with every aspect of your Marathon shark feeding experience and, they will make sure you and your family has an outstanding experience!
Please note that this Encounter at our Florida marine park attraction does not require our visitors to get in the water to interact with our friendly nurse sharks. This is a DRY encounter, so no need to wear a bathing suit! All members of the family can safely enjoy this Encounter from the comfort of our tank deck while touching and feeding the adult nurse sharks.
All members of the family will love the hands-on interaction of this exclusive shark feeding encounter at our Marathon aquarium!
