| Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium - the newly remodeled Aquarium will be three times larger and feature exciting new exhibits of jellyfish, river otters and a 306,000-gallon ocean tank. Mountain waterfalls, Piedmont rivers, coastal swamps, and offshore shipwrecks will be some of the new habitats. Visitors will get a glimpse of what Blackbeard's flagship, the Queen Anne's Revenge, and the sunken German sub U-352 look like on the ocean floor. The "Living Shipwreck," which will display the wreckage of the sub, will feature a viewing window more than 60 feet long!
