Due to the prolonged 2020 closure of the Aquariums and Jennette’s Pier and resulting financial stress for the NC Aquarium Society, our gift shops will remain closed until March 2021.

You can still support us through our online gift shop!

COVID-19 UPDATE:

The NC Aquariums are now open! Memberships will be extended to recover the time that active benefits were unavailable due to Covid-19 closures. Members still receive free admission to the NC Aquariums but must obtain advance tickets to enter. AZA reciprocal admissions will not be available initially. NC Zoo members must follow advance ticketing guidance. Advance tickets are available here.

Holiday orders must be placed by Friday, December 4th for holiday delivery. Orders placed after December 4th may not arrive before December 25th.
