Phillip & Patricia Frost Museum of Science

Miami, FL

A science museum combining a three-level aquarium, planetarium, and interactive exhibitions, with a strong focus on South Florida ecosystems, marine science, astronomy, and hands-on exploration.

Why Visit

Phillip & Patricia Frost Museum of Science brings together a science museum, aquarium, and planetarium in a single destination. Its exhibits connect natural science with South Florida's environments, giving particular attention to marine ecosystems, the Florida Everglades, mangroves, and Florida's Coral Reef. The aquarium is arranged across three levels, creating a progression from surface habitats to underwater environments and the deeper waters of the Gulf Stream.

The aquarium includes large marine habitats featuring fish, rays, sharks, reef species, and jellies, along with interactive exhibits exploring the science behind Florida's aquatic ecosystems. Visitors can also encounter the museum's planetarium and exhibitions covering broader scientific subjects, making the experience considerably wider than a conventional aquarium visit. The combination of living marine exhibits, hands-on science, and astronomy makes Frost Science well suited to travelers who want wildlife and natural history presented within a larger science-focused setting. Its strong regional emphasis also provides useful context for understanding the ecosystems found throughout South Florida.
