Project Check-in:
The Daytona Aquarium & Rainforest Adventure opened just 2 years ago, and continues to grow! Phase 1 consisted of the main aquarium, infrastructure, and initial layout of the project, primarily to get the doors open.
Now that things are running on rails, the following phases are beginning to flourish. Animal displays were next, and visitors can now complete their journey by navigating thru the Rainforest Adventure.
Now. . . the Island Oasis Wedding Venue will be ready for business! Visitors can experience this unique gathering space at their next private party. Integrated into the aquarium environment, the Island Oasis offers partygoers an experience right within the Daytona Aquarium.
In the end, the Daytona project consists of over 55,000 s.f. of highly coordinated space, integrating custom designed animal enclosures, specialized equipment, and a wide array of third party vendors. Studio m worked closely with the City of Daytona Beach to ensure that this one of a kind project met the unique code requirements necessary for this space to exist.
Next time you're at the beach, check out the aquarium!
