点评:The Ucluelet Aquarium (UA) in this west coast ocean village locals call Ukee, which had its most successful year ever of visitor traffic in 2023, was off to a good, brisk start when it opened its doors on March 1.
It was busy from the first day, Laura, who heads the non-profit, & is multi-skilled, as both a marine biologist & an ocean diver, was happy to report in its first week open. She is also charming, committed to ocean life & a great communicator.
It has exciting new sea creatures visiting this season, she said, thus likely to draw in good crowds, which one would imagine will surely result in even bigger numbers for 2024.
This west coast catch-&-release micro aquarium draws ever more visitors as its “fame” spreads, locally, nationally & internationally.
In 2023 it drew a record number of 40,O00 visitors. This year certainly more.
It also had a good fundraising year in 2023 with its innovative cedar fish plaque donation project.
It releases its sea animal at the end of November, spending December, January & February cleaning & reimagining its environment.
It opens again each season with new sea animal“visitors” on March 1.
It offers season passes & low entrance rates.
Get the passes now & enjoy a full nine months of visits.
There are many ways to donate to this worthy non-profit, something which leads to donor satisfaction well into the future, something I know first hand as a serial donor.

该非营利组织的负责人、多才多艺的劳拉从第一天起就很忙碌,她既是海洋生物学家,又是海洋潜水员,她很高兴地在开放的第一周报告。她也很迷人,致力于海洋生活并且是一位出色的沟通者。
她说,这个季节会有令人兴奋的新海洋生物来到这里,因此可能会吸引大量游客,可以想象,2024 年的游客数量肯定会更大。
随着其“名气”在当地、全国和国际上的传播,这个西海岸的捕捉和释放微型水族馆吸引了越来越多的游客。
2023 年,它吸引了创纪录的 40,000 名游客。今年肯定更多。
其创新的雪松鱼牌匾捐赠项目在 2023 年也取得了良好的筹款年。
它在 11 月底释放海洋动物,并在 12 月、1 月和 2 月期间清洁和重新构想其环境。
每年 3 月 1 日,这里都会再次开放,迎接新的海洋动物“访客”。
它提供季票和低廉的入场费。
立即获取通行证并享受整整九个月的访问。
有很多方式可以向这个有价值的非营利组织捐款,这些方式可以让捐赠者在未来很满意,这是我作为连续捐赠者的第一手资料。
