Join Us for a Night of Fish, Fun & Fright

6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 19, 2012

Buoys and ghouls of all ages are invited to dress up in costume for a Night of Fish, Fun and Fright from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 19, 2012 at Mote Aquarium.

Sail the spooky seas and discover creatures from the deep in a safe and fun trick-or-treating zone and explore our haunted house, “Shipwreck on City Island" (recommended for children 8 and older).

Unearth shark teeth in “Coffin Creek” and enjoy deep sea delights in the “Diner of the Dead.” And don’t miss our signature underwater pumpkin carving in our spooktacular shark tank!

Last year's Night of Fish, Fun & Fright was such a huge success that we decided to invite the pirates for another invasion of the Aquarium during this year's event!
