One thing that we often forget it that Mall of America has an underground Aquarium-in fact, it is the largest in the world. The Sea Life Aquarium has a 300 foot ocean tunnel and 30 display tanks that provides close encounters with more than 10,000 sea creatures. Some creatures that you would encounter at Sea Life Aquarium are Green Sea Turtles, Giant Pacific Octopus, Sand Tiger Shark, Cownose Stingray, seahorses, Clownfish, jellyfishes, and many more water creatures.
One activity that you can participate in are at the touch pool. There, you can hold a crab or touch a starfish. You will be awed when a 9 foot Sandtiger Shark as they swim over your head. To enhance your experience at the aquarium, you can do a one hour snorkeling program that gets you close to over 75 types of tropical fish. Not only are you able to see and experience underwater life, you can also learn about what you can do to protect and make our oceans a better place for these animals to live in. 
The entrance is on the east side level 1 of the mall. From there, you would go down the escalator and be greeted by the front desk. So it's easy to find and easy to get to.
I haven't been to Sea Life Aquarium before, but I have been to the Underwater Adventure when it was there before Sea Life. I remember how cool it was to have the different sea creatures swam above my head and how much fun I had. I would definitely go to Sea Life now to see what has been added to the old Underwater Adventure.
So if you are amazed by the ocean creatures, or eager to see something cool, check out Sea Life Aquarium in the Mall of America!
