  • Costume masks may only be worn for photo opportunities.
  • Costume masks may only be worn for photo opportunities. Health-related masks that cover the nose and mouth can be worn at any time.
  • Full-body or oversized inflatable costumes are prohibited due to reduced visibility for the wearer and potential difficulty safely navigating the Aquarium.
