Clearwater Marine Aquarium launches new audio tour
by Katie Pfaff
Clearwater Marine Aquarium recently launched a new audio tour for guests to immerse themselves in marine life conservation efforts and learn more about the rescued marine animals in their care.
The self-guided tour is offered free for guests and has 26 curated stops which are marked throughout the facility. Guests also have the option to select a children's or adult version, sponsored by BayCare, while a limited supply of braille devices and headsets for individuals with hearing impairments are also available.
Lisa Oliver, chief operating officer of Clearwater Marine Aquarium, said in a news release that the organization hopes to provide guests with another fun way to engage with the unique rescue stories of the animals and work conducted outside the four walls to conserve and protect all marine life. The aquarium recently celebrated its 50th anniversary.
In 1972, Mary McCormack incorporated the small not-for-profit as an educational facility, focused on teaching children and adults about the world of the sea around us. Her vision continues today within Clearwater Marine Aquarium's mission. As a nod to history, McCormack leads the kids tour as "Eco-Ranger Mary.
Production duo Caroline Figuel and Danny Jones worked with staff to create the tour content and an exclusive theme song, "If We All Pitch In," for the children's version. Figuel and Jones have created music for Disney and produced audio tours for Ripley's Aquarium, Pearl Harbor's USS Bowfin and Pacific Submarine Fleet Museum, Biltmore Estate and Stone Mountain Park.
