Improved Essays
Opening in 2016, The OdySea Aquarium is the largest aquarium in the southwest of the United States. Have you ever used a public bathroom where you can have a full view of sharks literally surrounding you? This place is seriously cool - not only is there an escalator that allows you to descend deep into the ocean where you can see thousands of underwater creatures, but you can discover an entire new world of the sea. With over 500 types of sea species, this is an epic adventure to be had. If you're loving the nautical aesthetic, and feeling peckish, try local eatery El Encanto. Specializing in a fun combination of seafood and Mexican fare, your belly will thank you. Although you may feel weird eating fish, after enjoying a day at the aquarium.

    Orcas have been stuck in captivity since the mid-1900s. They were first captured from their ocean environment and moved to tanks that were small and modified for their conditions. John Hargrove a former SeaWorld trainer said, “...I was thrilled to be apart of the orcas’ lives for so long, I finally came to the realization that if I had to live their lives, it would be hell.

    Inside the Aquarium, by Viktor Suvorov, is a spy novel that tells the story of his personal rise and fall of being a GRU officer during the Cold War.
