Mystic Aquarium Visit
You can’t visit Mystic without taking a trip to the aquarium. This is the perfect time to enjoy being in the company of some marine friends. The aquarium will entertain you for a couple of hours. Mystic Aquarium is home to the SHARKS touch habitat which is unique and allows visitors to touch non-threatening sharks as they swim past. Tickets can be purchased in advance on the aquarium website.
