Experience thousands of species and interactive exhibits at the Austin Aquarium, where they provide children and families access to the excitement and learning opportunities of the ocean without the long trip to the coast. Each of the animal encounters is unique and rewarding. So, whether you are meeting the Ring-tailed or Red Ruffed lemurs for the first time, or feeding the Stingrays, Sharks, Iguanas, Tortoises, Lorikeets, and more, you will find an experience worth your while and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Stop and smell the wildflowers at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, where they use native plants to restore and create sustainable, beautiful landscapes. Learn how they inspire the conservation of native plants through the gardens, research, education, and outreach programs. In doing so, we improve water quality, provide habitat for wildlife, and enhance human health and happiness.
