A submerged Santa returns to the Newport Aquarium for the annual Water Wonderland with Scuba Santa attraction.
The man in red will be underwater, blowing magical air bubble showers and tapping on the glass in the 385,000-gallon Surrounded by Sharks exhibit to say hello and to listen to all the little girls’ and boys’ holiday wishes.
When he isn’t surrounded by sharks, Santa will visit Stingray Hideaway, which his elves have decorated in a festive tropical theme. Elves have also decorated the ceiling of Seahorses: Unbridled Fun with sea-creature shaped lights. And kids can visit Santa’s post office in Penguin Palooza to “wish on a magical bubble and mail it.”
Nov. 23-Dec. 31. Free with admission: $24.99 adult; $17.99 child. Newport Aquarium, Newport on the Levee, newportaquarium.com.
