Come explore the unique nonprofit hospital dedicated to the rescue, rehab and release of marine animals. See the Clearwater Marine Aquarium's mission in action as you discover the rehab and surgical areas and get up-close inspiration from the stories of resident animals, including Winter the dolphin, who swims with a prosthetic tail. Feed the stingrays, sharks and pelicans, or cruise on an interactive boat safari. See Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, sea turtles, river otters, stingrays and sharks. Feed a stingray, watch a dolphin show, and have your photo taken with a dolphin. You can also take a behind-the-scenes tour of the animal hospital and visit the theater to watch footage of the aquarium's team rescuing and treating injured animals. You won’t want to miss Winter, the world-famous dolphin whose story inspired the hit movie Dolphin Tale. After losing her tail in a crab trap, she was rescued and fitted with a prosthetic tail. Now she’s healthy and swimming freely! Take a journey inside the movie with re-built scenes, movie images and actual props used in the film.
