Dive Into Summer Camp Fun at Shreveport Aquarium

What do you get when you merge science exploration and hands-on fun? Find out this summer at Camp Aqua at Shreveport Aquarium. Campers will discover the wonders of the ocean, experience up close animal encounters and go behind the scenes to get up close and personal with sharks, eels, and a host of other sea creatures.

The aquarium will offer three different camps this summer including full-day camps for 6 – 11 year olds and and half-day camps for 4 – 7 year olds.
