Ocean Arena
First to be covered will be the Ocean Arena. Depending on the period of your visit, the place may get packed. Therefore, it is advisable to arrive slightly before the show timing to get a good seat!
For those of you who are new to Aqua Planet, you may want to note that Ocean Arena is divided into two segments.
In the first half, you will be able to enjoy a wonderful underwater musical performance “Finding Sena”. Following the musical performance, is the second half! During this section, there will be a small ecology presentation prepared to provide information on ecology and habits of sea lions and dolphins!
You will be able to witness for yourselves the incredible speed dolphins can swim. The dolphins will also make a series of jumps and high-pitched squeaks! Needless to say, you will certainly leave in amazement if you watch the show.
Aquarium
Next stop: the Aquarium!
The first sight that will greet you is a school of small fish in a small tank! Check out the beautiful photo above.
The aquarium is the place that will interest you if you wish to see all the different species of fishes that you can usually find only in books!
The aquarium is also home to 48,000 marine life and plants, with about 500 species in exhibitions, displayed around the aquarium!
In the main tank itself, you get to see about 27,000 marine species. That is more than half of the total marine species in the aquarium! It is almost as though you are gazing at the ocean from the inside…
Marine Science
A Quick Glance
Aqua Planet is divided into three different floors.
In the basement, you will be able to find a gift shop, food court, and the Ocean Arena performance stage.
On the first floor, you will be able to locate a Beans and Berries Cafe which extends until the second floor. Also, on the second floor, you can expect to find the Kids Planet Exhibition Room, Convenience Store and ticketing office.
Beans & Berries (café)
If you are tired after the walk through the exhibits, you may take a rest at the café. The café sells a selection of snacks, in particular, ice cream with Churros!
Gift Shop
The souvenir shop is not a stop to be missed! The shop sells items such as plushy, clothes and even balloons. A shopper’s paradise, without a doubt.
Not to Be Missed (2): Located on the second floor is a children experience center called Kids Planet! Inside Kids planet, there are many interactive exhibits and fun lessons! Here, you can expect to find a series of quizzes to test your knowledge, search for hidden marine organisms in the art sector, and enjoy a mini library filled with books about the sea.
This is a view of the biggest aquarium. Don’t you think it looks exactly like a real ocean?
