Rescue, Rehab and Recover From Extinction!

The Dino Rescue Experience

Dino Rescue will bring guests at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium up-close to life-size dinosaurs, some as tall as 35 feet and 65 feet long. As guests walk throughout CMA, they will encounter the dinosaurs, which move and roar, as they rehabilitate from various ailments today’s animals face – like habitat loss and entanglement.

Roaring throughout Clearwater Marine Aquarium now through April 15!

Go On a Dino Rescue Safari Tour!

Learn about CMA’s new Dino Rescue patients on this Dino Safari. Participants will enjoy a 30-minute guided walking tour where they can meet all of our rehab dino patients and learn about their stories, why they are rehabilitating at CMA, and how you can help the conservation of animals like our dinosaurs. You may even be able to assist our dino rehab team with caring for our Dino Rescue patients!

BOOK NOW!

Dino Questions

Dino Rescue can be experienced throughout Clearwater Marine Aquarium now through April 15, 2023.

You do not need a reservation. The entire exhibit experience is included with admission! The Dino Rescue Safari, a guided walking tour, is available for purchase separately. Additional programs may require reservations or separate purchase.

Please don’t feed the dinosaurs and please don’t let them eat you!


A Mosasaur Rescue!

Clearwater Marine Aquarium responded to a stranded animal off Clearwater Beach on October 14, 2022. The rescued creature identified as a mosasaur was taken to CMA for further diagnostics and care. Our rescue team has responded to several other large creatures, which have arrived at CMA as part of our largest rescue mission ever!

Help Us Save the Dinos!

Rescued dinosaurs are being found and need help to survive different threats. Luckily, the rescue team at Clearwater Marine Aquarium is ready and adapting to take care of these prehistoric creatures and provide the same care we offer all of our rescued animals. Rescued dinosaurs will be rehabilitated throughout CMA, where guests can learn about these formerly extinct species and help us find ways to keep all animals safe in the wild.
