About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Clearwater Marine Aquarium, 249 Windward Passage, Clearwater, FL 33767-2244
You’ll be picked up from your hotel in the morning and taken to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, just 1.5 hours from Orlando. Dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and release of injured marine animals, this fun and educational attraction offers a variety of activities for the whole family.
See Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles, river otters, stingrays and sharks. Feed a stingray, watch a dolphin show, and have your photo taken with a dolphin. You can also take a behind-the-scenes tour of the animal hospital and visit the theater to watch footage of the aquarium's team rescuing and treating injured animals.
You won’t want to miss Winter, the world-famous dolphin whose story inspired the hit movie Dolphin Tale. After losing her tail in a crab trap, she was rescued and fitted with a prosthetic tail. Now she’s healthy and swimming freely! Take a journey inside the movie with re-built scenes, movie images and actual props used in the film. Winter’s incredible story has also been seen on Oprah, NBC's The Today Show, ABC’s Good Morning America and others.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Clearwater Beach, 1 Causeway Blvd, Clearwater, FL 33767
After your time at the aquarium, enjoy free time for lunch (if option selected) and some beach time. You’ll then be taken back to your Orlando hotel.
Duration: 7 hours

If this is the only way for you to get to the aquarium do it. It does get you there. Just be aware that it is primarily a trip to clearwater beach with a stop at the aquarium. We only had one other party on a full bus going to the aquarium and was told by the driver we would have to "work out" our pick up time with that person because he would only come back once. To be fair we compromised and went with a pick up earlier than we wanted. :(
Great tour,went to the Aquarium.Enjoyed a swim at clearwater beach.We were picked up our motel at the time they said and drove to Clearwater in a double decker bus,
greatly enjoyed the aquarium and Clearweater Beach. Bus very hot on trip to Clearwater, but finally someone spoke up to turn up air conditioning and that helped. Driver gave a lot of info on trip. Bus over heated on trip back and pulled in to gas station for unscheduled stop. after some time continued on.
Was great to see winter the dolphin, though do bear in mind that the aquarium was built as a hospital for marine animals and not a tourist attraction, so it is very much no frills. Felt that the staff were a bit unfriendly. Clearwater beach is stunning, beach alone is worth the trip.
