Sensory Saturday at Mote
We are excited to announce that Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium will open its doors an hour early exclusively for individuals who have sensory processing differences or those with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Individuals with disabilities who would benefit from a calmer sensory experience are also welcome.
Mote will foster an inclusive environment for these aquarium guests. Our exhibits may be enjoyed under soft lighting without heavy crowds, and with decreased noise level and visual stimulation wherever possible.
Sensory Saturday will open at 8:30 a.m. Groups will be allowed time entry to minimize crowding. Regular Aquarium hours begin at 9:30 a.m.
