This is no ordinary visit with Santa! Watch as Scuba Claus takes the plunge into the Aquarium’s underwater habitats, surrounded by incredible marine life, bringing a little extra magic to the holiday season.
- Scuba Claus underwater: Santa takes the plunge for a one-of-a-kind holiday experience, with dives happening at least twice daily through December 24.
- A picture-perfect holiday backdrop: The popular Jelly Snow Globe returns, giving families a unique opportunity to capture their holiday memories.
- Holiday magic with a purpose: Our annual toy drive is back! Guests who purchase a penguin plush at 50% off through the Aquarium Gift Shop will have it donated to a child in need through the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau.
There is plenty more to explore this season, including a new Holiday 4D experience, an immersive Arctic VR adventure, seasonal treats and our popular Breakfast with Santa events.
