The New England Aquarium is dedicated to presenting, promoting and protecting the world of water through exhibits, education, conservation and research programs. The Aquarium is one of New England's most popular destinations attracting over 1.3 million visitors per year. The Eden Ice Arena is still on scheduled to open in September. Finally a little refuge from the humidity and sticky outside temperature. The inside atmosphere will rage from 15 to 18 degrees the equivalent to a cool Maltese winter day.
Ice skating is a new and innovative idea that has been around for centuries.
It was used as a means of transport at the turn of the century but developed into more of a recreational activity with the invention of indoor refrigeration systems. Now the Eden Leisure Group is introducing the concept to Malta. The Eden Ice Arena will be housed within the group's Lm25 million project in St. George's Bay and will offer cool entertainment throughout the year. The facility is currently about to start the ice making process. All the pipes are down and a special type of sand has been laid.
