 The Aquarium of the Pacific is a non-profit organization committed to "instilling a sense of wonder, respect, and stewardship for the Pacific Ocean, its inhabitants and ecosystems" by providing engaging, entertaining, educational and empowering exhibits and programs on the Pacific Ocean and the lives of its inhabitants.  2008 marks the 10-year anniversary for the aquarium. Today, the 156,000 square-foot facility houses 650 species and 12,500 ocean animals in 51 exhibits.  A hallmark of the Aquarium of the Pacific is the numerous opportunities for visitors to touch and interact with the animals. For example, Shark Lagoon features shallow pools where nurse, zebra and other harmless sharks, as well as skates and rays can be touched.  As a founding sponsor of the Aquarium of the Pacific, Honda strongly supports this world-class venue for education and environmentalism that is visited by over 250,000 school children and more than one million visitors each year. Honda's financial donations to the Aquarium assist in its important efforts for marine conservation, education and community-outreach programs. The 150-seat Honda Theater is the setting for on-site educational programs and lectures by nationally renowned scientists.Visit the Aquarium of the Pacific Web site. |
