If you are stuck as to what to get someone for Christmas then a membership for the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo could be the perfect gift. And you don’t just have to get a membership for a youngster - you can always buy one for the whole family.

Then seniors only have to pay $15.
For adults over 18 years old the membership is $45 while a family membership (Killifish Family) costs $75.
For membership purposes, a family is defined as the parents and their immediate children under the age of 18 or in full-time education. A family membership can have no more than two adults named on the membership card. In the case of a single parent family, one other adult may be named on the card. Additional benefits include booking privileges for Aqua Camp participants.
A Killifish Grandparent membership costs $75 and that includes two grandparents and up to three grandchildren (age 18 and under) or one grandparent and four grandchildren (age 18 and under) to be named on the card.
