The Waikiki Aquarium, founded in 1904, is the third oldest public
aquarium in the United States. A part of the
University of Hawaii
since 1919, the Aquarium is located next to a living reef on the Waikiki shoreline.
Our exhibits, programs, and research focus on the aquatic life of
Hawaii and the tropical Pacific. Over 2,500 organisms in our
exhibits represent more than 420 species of aquatic animals and
every year, roughly 350,000 people visit the Waikiki Aquarium.
The Waikiki Aquarium has been designated as the
Coastal Ecosystem Learning Center
for the Pacific Island Region of the
Coastal America Partnership.
