This Aquarium is full of surprises. First there is plenty of parking. Then the admission is not that expensive comparing to what things we can experience in there. The Aquarium staff are very nice and welcoming. And of course it’s very clean. I am not a zoo/aquarium person but I still love to go around this place.

Beluga whales bro, if you wanna see beluga whales come here. They do tricks and stuff too which is very entertaining. The aquarium is also very large with lots of activities for you and your family, especially your kids. There is a free park area with playgrounds and restaurants along with food stalls on the side of the aquarium. There is also a bridge that connects it to the beach if you wanna go for a swim.

It was a rainy day, so a perfect place to escape the rain and enjoy animals and fish. the building layout is well planned so you can enjoy feeding times from multiple locations as well as see the entirety of exhibits from multiple points with fish eye windows. so many enjoyable gifts in the gift shop!

We visited this aquarium during our visit to Hamada. It was very impressive to see all the animals that this aquarium has to offer. They have activities for kids and adults alike. We spent all day here and the views from the rooftop were amazing. Staff was very friendly and helpful even with the language barrier. If we are back in the area we will visit again, definitely a must see.

Beautiful large aquarium with plenty of sharks, beluga whales, penguins, sea lions etc. The grounds are huge, no trouble locating parking. They have a small cafe (with beer), gift shops and several children interaction zones to make the visit more engaging for the kids. A bridge leads you over the expressway to the other side on the beach once your visit to the aquarium is over.
