Sea-son's greetings!

Meet Diving Santa at the Seattle Aquarium! Hear from the holly jolly diver about how you can help the ocean this holiday season. Find Santa swimming in a winter wonderland at our Window on Washington Waters habitat in Pier 59.

Nothing says “sea-son’s greetings” like a selfie with Santa! Take a picture together while Santa is underwater and you stay warm and dry. Snap yourself a merry little selfie or have one of our volunteers help take a family photo using your device.

For members on the “nice” list, we’ll be opening early at 9am on November 30 and December 14 with a special dive just for you! Visit the member portal to reserve your tickets.
