During the winter holidays you expect to hear “ho, ho, hos” echoing through the grocery store, the mall and your office party, but there’s still one place where the sight and sound of a jolly old elf can still catch you by surprise, and that’s in Greater Cleveland Aquarium’s 230,000-gallon shark habitat! Add a splash of wonder to your holidays with a Scuba Claus Merry Meet & Greet. Talk to the magical man in red while he’s underwater with his dive buddy elves and the grunts, groupers, rays and sharks on his “nice list.” Discuss cookie preferences, ask diving questions or share what you ho-ho-hope to see under your tree on select mornings. The Aquarium has additional Friday evening sessions exclusively for Annual Passholders.

In addition to the unique opportunity to share “fish-mas” wishes with a Christmas icon, all Scuba Claus Merry Meet & Greets include full Aquarium access, a winter-themed activity sheet, a candy cane and a commemorative digital photo of the memorable experience.

Scuba Claus Merry Meet & Greets are limited capacity and only available with advance purchase.
