We were right above/alongside the tanks, like Samuel L. Lots of pipes and industrial feeling equipment. There was lots of rubber padding and we could see the crated walkways over the tanks. Wet suits and diving equipment hung off garment racks.
Then we were in, above the tanks and just out of view of the pool visitors 3 floors below. To get into the authorized zone we had to first walk through a decontaminating foot bath (not water, just air!). Just buy tickets online or at the ticket counter on the ground floor of the Golden Nugget.Ī marine biologist took us and 5 other guests up the elevator and to the top of the tank. You don’t have to be staying at the hotel to take the tour. Tours are offered once a day, at 3:30pm, Thursday through Saturday. It’s been on our bucket list for a long time and is often listed in hotel pool top 10 lists. Here’s a first for us-an actual hotel swimming pool attraction! Did you know that for $30 a person, you can go on a behind-the-scenes tour and get up close and personal with the sharks, creatures and marine biologists at the Golden Nugget Tank? This is the often mentioned pool with a water slide that takes you through a shark tank.
