Description: JAMES BAY. Descend 15 feet to the lower level of this glass-enclosed observatory and you can watch over 5000 species of marine life in their natural habitat. Sharks, eels, starfish, salmon, and "Armstrong" the giant octopus are all visible as they go about their daily business. The upper level features a "petting pool" where you can touch some of the sea's more gentle creatures. The provincial marine mammal rescue program brings injured and orphaned seals here – you can watch them recuperate in areas next to the observatory.
