Minnesota is known for snow in the winter, rain in the spring, and extreme heat/humidity in the summer, but at SEA LIFE Minnesota there is no such thing as a rainy day! Mall of America® is your one stop spot for family fun activities on rainy days. The indoor retreat provides shelter from any bad weather, and offers guests a variety of things to do on rainy days, including restaurants, shopping, and of course SEA LIFE Minnesota!

Don’t let dreary weather dampen your spirits. Take shelter under the ocean and visit over 10,000 sea creatures. SEA LIFE Minnesota is the perfect rainy day outing for kids, teens, families, and couples!

What is it about water animals that is SO FASCINATING? We had so much fun at the SEA LIFE Minnesota Aquarium! You really have to experience the tunnel. It’s not something you can explain in words. You are surrounded by the animals, as close to swimming right with the sharks, fish, and turtles as you can get without putting on a snorkel. My boys were just absolutely fixated.

They loved the Sea Turtle best. The excitement on their face when it would swim by was so priceless! My youngest (5) was a little scared of the sharks, so if you have one who would be prone to that be prepared. I think it was just a little overwhelming for him to have the sharks swimming above and around him. But my oldest (6) thought it was the coolest thing ever! There are other fun things to do other than the {awesome} tunnel. There is a touch pool with starfish and other fun creatures, and the coolest way you’ll ever experience jellyfish ever!
