This year the Sea Of Lights event will happen on the first three Fridays and Saturdays of December. This is a great opportunity to get a photo with Santa for free, and explore the wonder of the holiday season and sea life at the aquarium.

Santa's helpers will snap a photo for you and email it to you a few days after your visit.
