Construction Update: As we enhance the look and feel of the Aquarium and make structural improvements to the penguin exhibit, some exhibits are temporarily closed, and the penguins are off exhibit until February 13. Learn more.
Our penguin exhibit is home to two species of penguins and contains 150,000 gallons of water filtered in from Boston harbor. Watch our African penguins swim, hop, and preen!
While we complete structural improvements to our Penguin Colony, the African penguins have been temporarily relocated to our Animal Care Center in Quincy, Massachusetts. Watch them swim behind the scenes!
