The Clearwater Marine Aquarium mission is to restore and preserve our marine environment. CMA inspires passion to respect and protect our marine life and environment for future generations. Our vision is to impact the nations with the messages of environmental awareness and respect for marine life. Though we are best known for our physical location in beautiful Clearwater Beach, Florida, we have developed a global media platform allowing us to reach millions with our vision, well beyond the guests who come to our facility. We believe in thinking big, and doing big things. Our only limitations are the limitations we put on our self. In the spirit of Steve Irwin, let's all become "wildlife warriors" and deliver a better planet to future generations. 

Delight yourself with the variety of things to do and see here at CMA. From feeding stingrays to touching a dolphin, to Eco-Boat Tours and Behind the Scenes Tours. Oh no, it doesn't stop there...see a dolphin presentation and see Winter's tail put on, enjoy a relaxing movie in the Theater about CMA & Winter the tailless dolphin, even listen to our CEO, David Yates talk to you about the new upcoming movie, Dolphin Tale. Be a Trainer for a Day or head out on a Kayak Adventure, enjoy a free Making Waves lecture series or join us for Summer Camp. We have something for any age to enjoy and fill your hearts with excitement!

Yes, you can get up-close and personal with one of our resident dolphins and stingrays! We have 3 different types of dolphin encounters and a dolphin photo opportunity, plus a stingray feeding opportunity! All provide a unique experience you'll remember for a lifetime!
