The Texas State Aquarium is a major tourist attraction on the Gulf Coast that receives more than 500,000 visitors per year and is a leading educational and rehabilitation center that primarily focuses on species from the Gulf of Mexico. Exhibits explore both creatures of the gulf and the natural habitat that supports them. Some sections of the Texas State Aquarium include Amazon, Dolphin Bay, Eagle Pass, and Floating Phantoms. In addition, they have touch tanks, up-close encounters with stingrays, and a super-sized children's play park.
