I arrived here at the entrance of the Aqua Museum (aquarium) around 8:50am on a Saturday morning. My friends and I bought tickets on Klook with a 9am arrival. There was a line but they let people in around 8:55am. If you don’t already have tickets, there is a ticket booth. Staff have print outs of common questions/information in English that aids with communication barrier. We didn’t know this was part of an amusement park, so that was a surprise.

Upon entering, we passed aquarium tanks with fish. Beyond that is a place to have pictures taken for an additional cost.

They have many animals including penguins, sea lions, large crabs, polar bears, walrus, sharks, jelly fish, sting rays, eels, and many, many more! They have an outside area for land animals such as otters, flamingos, and prairie dogs. You even get to go up the escalator through one exhibit, which is pretty cool. In lab 6, you can touch and hold a starfish.

My biggest complaint is that they need to clean the windows in the water exhibits because the parts where there isn’t water is obstructed, which prevents guests from seeing the animals clearly. There was one exhibit with bubbles and what not on the lid where we couldn’t see at all inside.

We watched a live presentation at 10am. The visuals had English translation, which was great. There was dolphins, penguins, and walrus in the show! Unfortunately, the commentary was in Japanese, so we didn’t understand it. The show lasted about 25 minutes.

They have vending machines throughout the aquarium but they take cash :( I noticed they had spaces for breastfeeding women, which is cool!

After we finished the aquarium, we went to the food court and had lunch. I got a burger, fries, and chicken nuggets, which was good. The burger had a mozzarella type cheese on it that I thought was mayo. It was overpowering and I didn’t finish it. My friends got ramen and food from the chicken place and they enjoyed it! It’s fair prices, much better than food at an amusement park in the USA, lol.

My friend wanted to ride the roller coaster, which we did. We had to go back to the ticket counter to purchase the ticket. If you’re a local, you can purchase online. I like that you can buy tickets to an individual ride but they do have various day passes.

Overall, it was a fun experience! We were there for about 4 hours. They have a gift shop and MANY food and dessert options outside of the food court. I would return!
