Dinosaur Valley State Park- Glen Rose, TX Swim with Stingrays: 30 dollars (extra)Ĥ.Tip::I used a Groupon for this as well 🙂 The aquarium is also very hands-on with many interactive opportunities. If you don’t want to jump in the tank, there are many viewing areas to watch other snorkelers. We were able to swim around on our own for almost 1 hour! We were also given shrimp to feed to the stingrays. You can swim with the stingrays in the middle of a mall! They provide you with wet suits and you hop in with a staff member.
