| Description | Focused on the preservation of the Sonoran Desert, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum will turn your idea of a museum inside out. Set on a 98-acre botanical garden, a two mile walking trail features 230 animal species, an art gallery, an aquarium, educational activities, one of the world’s most comprehensive regional mineral collections, and more. Ongoing conservation and research programs enhance everything we do. The Desert Museum is open every day from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Plan your visit at www.desertmuseum.org.
Visitors are able to create their own moments with these captivating creatures at our new Stingray Touch experience. The pool features cow nose stingrays that are regularly debarbed, a process compared with trimming a fingernail. This provides a comfortable environment for guests to interact with the stingrays.
