Atlanta, Georgia's capital city
Sea life
You know there's something special about Georgia Aquarium the moment you see its imposing ship's prow-like architecture. The world's second largest aquarium, it is home to more than 500 species, and more than 100,000 creatures in total, including whale sharks, manta rays and beluga whales. There are six galleries in all, one of which, Ocean Voyager, features a 30m long underwater tunnel which puts you in the heart of the action as myriad creatures swim around you.
