Journey to Churchill Tunnel Cleaning

Guests visiting the Journey to Churchill exhibit may observe a diver cleaning the underwater viewing tunnels on Tuesday and Thursday mornings year-round. During cleaning, seals are still visible and polar bears can be seen in other areas of their habitat. After cleaning, the water can remain cloudy for up to two hours as the filtration system clears debris, which may temporarily reduce visibility.
