Ep. 173: SEA LIFE: From Scuba Santa to Magical Mermaids

What does it take to bring the ocean, a little Halloween magic and a world of bubbles to Mall of America? In this episode of So Much More, we talk with John Sullwold, senior communications manager for SEA LIFE Aquarium, about the experiences that make SEA LIFE special.

John shares the story behind the aquarium’s popular snorkeling experience, creative traditions like underwater pumpkin carving and Scuba Santa, and the daily care and conservation work guests may not see.
