Learning about different cultures allows for a greater understanding of not only their customs but how everyone is influenced by its various contributions. The Pinellas County African American History Museum dramatically underscores the contributions of the African American culture through the use of various exhibits that present artifacts and other items of interest. The museum also regularly schedules various unique events throughout the year that further highlight the African American experience.

Clearwater Marine Aquarium serves as both a rehabilitation facility for animals as well as an educational facility where visitors can learn more about aquatic life, ecology, and the role which wildlife plays in it through fascinating exhibits and attractions.  Don't let the small size of the Clearwater Marine Aquarium fool you. It is very big on ensuring the survival of marine life in the area. While offering visitors the chance to see marine fauna, the aquarium is also a facility in which injured animals go through an extensive rehabilitation process before returning to their natural habitats. Visitors learn about ecology and how important it is to respect the wildlife that inhabit it. Some of the creatures that you'll see here include sharks, otters, dolphins, sea turtles, and stingrays. Stop in at the gift shop during your visit. The proceeds from purchases go towards helping fund this nonprofit organization.
