OdySea Aquarium, Scottsdale’s most popular entertainment attraction, continues to add new programs and exhibits to its diverse schedule of activities for guests to enjoy. The newest and largest exhibit, “OdySea Voyager,” launched on February 2nd and is considered to be an engineering marvel and an interactive experience that is both thrilling and educational for guests of all ages.
“The new OdySea Voyager will be our biggest initiative for 2018,” said Amram Knishinsky, founder of OdySea in the Desert. “It was inspired by experiences such as Universal Studio’s Harry Potter World and Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s Avatar, and we are thrilled to offer our guests this one-of-a-kind adventure.”
The journey begins at the Great Barrier Reef where guest enter the OdySea Voyager Research Station. Guest then step aboard The Voyager and embark on a journey through the sea with Commander Brizo, a decorated researcher and champion of the sea with years of experience in the field and her enthusiastic intern Nathan, a research intern who is eager to show off his knowledge of all things marine. Guests take their seats in a stadium-seating style theatre with 46 ft. viewing windows for the “world’s only revolving aquarium experience.” As the journey begins, they are then “submerged” into a “submarine” and taken through a narrated twenty-five-minute storytelling adventure where guests to OdySea Aquarium are invited to join the crew of the OdySea Voyager as they launch one of their five submarines to observe ocean life and search for answers in the deep blue! Along the journey they will encounter sea life varying from Sea Turtles and Broad Rays to giant Lemon Sharks! This 20-minute “voyage” is ideal for a budding marine researcher and is educational and entertaining at every turn.
There is no additional fee to visit the new OdySea Voyager exhibit, it is included in the admission cost.
