A Place to Visit!!!


Mote Laboratory and Aquarium is located in Sarasota, Florida
Feed Mote’s sharks (and find out how they get their vitamins) during Shark Encounter — a new behind-the-scenes program atop the 135,000-gallon shark habitat in The Aquarium at Mote Marine Laboratory. And don’t worry — our sharks’ favorite food is fish!
Up to three guests can join Mote staff at 10 a.m. each Wednesday to prepare brunch for our sharks and large fish, including blacknose, nurse and sandbar sharks, southern stingrays, tarpon, snook, goliath grouper and more. Guests will learn about shark biology, care, feeding and research from elasmobranch specialist Michele Taylor.
