I went there during weekends, it was not too crowded so I could get a good view of the animals. The dolphin show was amazing, it’s a must-watch! You can also get a mesmerizing sea view outside of the aquarium.

We chose this aquarium instead of the one near legoland and it doesn’t disappoint. Its orca and dolphins show is great and entertaining. These intelligent mammals are a sight to behold despite being in captivity. There isn’t many other sea creatures to admire like many else aquariums we been to but we are satisfied with this. Being next to the sea is so refreshing too.

What a lovely way to draw the crowd to the port with an aquarium & a nearby amusement park. Spent a great afternoon with the dolphins, penguins and many other marine creatures featured due to the climatic adversities. Very educational indeed.

Great aquarium with an amazing stadium for shows. We watched the dolphin show there and it's fun and the bonus was that eating was allowed there as well, which made the show more entertaining. The snacks they sold near the stadium were surprisingly delicious. We loved the sweet cream pretzel! The jelly fish, penguin feeding, and the tropical marine area were must see as well. We went on a day where many preschoolers were there. Was afraid it would be too crowded, but it turned out to be fine and it was cute to see the little kids enjoying themselves!

A place for kids to learn about the sea and its secrets!! Make sure to attend the dolphin show, it has specific timings so make sure u check the timings. It's a 10min show but it's fun to attend. The rest of the aquarium is fun in terms of the way they explain the aquatic animals. It has a huge orca, dolphins, jelly fishes, penguins and many other microorganisms. I would not suggest taking the tour which includes the observatory deck , but it's just my thought.
