Discover What’s New at Clearwater Marine Aquarium!
Clearwater Marine Aquarium’s new Manatee Rehabilitation Center is now open!
The first two manatee patients, Yeti & Zamboni, arrived on July 30 and have been acclimating to their new surroundings. The rescued manatees will be continuing their rehabilitation journey with us and will hopefully be released back to the wild this winter.
Your visit helps support our rescue, rehab, release and conservation efforts to protect these animals, and we are excited to invite you to be part of our mission and discover the wonder of manatees.
Learn more about the new Manatee Rehabilitation Center and how you can visit and help support the manatees in our care.
All activities authorized by USFWS and conducted under USFWS Permit #MA66524C.

Meet Opie – a New Resident River Otter!
Opie is a juvenile male river otter brought to CMA following a dog attack that injured his right eye. Opie has been deemed non-releasable as he has been habituated by humans and no longer has the instincts to survive in the wild. He will be introduced to Walle and Boomer as he acclimates to his new home in Otter Oasis. Help us welcome Opie on your next visit!
