Newport Aquarium
This gallery has over 500 animals in eight different exhibits. These are animals that live in the shallow areas of a water's edge.  The tanks in the Shore Gallery hold 6,120 gallons of water. This includes a touch pool where visitors can touch species of the New England shoreline in a 1,200 gallon, rocky, open-topped exhibit. The Surge Zone depicts an area of Hawaii where waves crash against the rocky shore and create tide pools.
