AQUARIUM AT THE BOARDWALK One of the newest things to do in Branson, this aquarium is unlike any other you’ve visited. Visitors can expect to enjoy more than 250 different animal species, an original 5D submarine adventure to the bottom of the sea; a 24-foot-high Kelp Forest climbing structure for kids; a gorgeous 16-foot view of a coral reef, two mirrored art installations that give the appearance of infinite ocean life; and more than 7,200 individual sea animals. Be sure to meet the Aquarium’s characters Aquarius, the wise and helpful Giant Pacific Octopus, and Finn, the adventurous Golden Puffer.
LAKE LIFE Did you know Branson has almost as much shoreline as the entire state of California? Among the dense Ozark forests, you’ll find three pristine lakes with incredible places to hike, swim, relax, or fish. Lake Taneycomo offers great trout fishing all year long; Bull Shoals Lake is one of the top bass fishing lakes in the country; and Table Rock Lake is home to Moonshine Beach, the Showboat Branson Belle and Dewey Short Visitor Center, all popular ways to enjoy the water.
