AQUARIUM at
the BOARDWALK
Jenkinson’s Aquarium always has a new adventure in store for explorers
and animal enthusiasts of all ages. Since opening its doors in 1991,
Jenkinson’s Aquarium has dedicated itself to the education, conservation
and superior care of its diverse collection of animals. Current exhibits
include their South African penguins, who welcomed two new members
in 2015, the completely expanded and renovated Harbor Seals exhibit
and the new Pine Barrens exhibit. Other attractions, such as the touch
tank, allow visitors to get up close and personal with live animals.
Knowledgeable staff members are always on hand to answer questions
and offer new insights. The aquarium is open year round, closing only
on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day. For more information
