Maria Mitchell Aquarium

About Us:

Located on the shoreline of Nantucket Harbor, the Aquarium displays local Nantucket species and is an excellent place to learn about the amazing sealife around the island. Displays are always changing and range from crabs and shellfish to fish and eels.  All animals at the Aquarium are locally-collected and are released back into the wild at the end of the season. Displays can also include anything from seahorses to octopus to sharks!
