One of the latest addition to great Singapore attractions! South-East Asia (S.E.A.) Aquarium is home to more than 800 species of marine animals like the enormous goliath grouper, mysterious sea jellies, gigantic manta rays and other marine legends. The highlight of the aquarium is the world’s largest viewing panel, a giant piece of glass at 36 meters (118ft) wide and 8.3 meters (27ft) tall, offers you the feeling of being right in on the ocean floor!
The Oceanarium starts with a journey through several of the reefs habitats, exhibiting different forms of marine life. You will see varying sizes of viewing panels, some are full of colourful reef species like triggerfish, butterfly fish and other rocky tanks with numerous moray eels! There are also tanks with schooling fish, and you will get to witness how the schooling fish mass tightly together to avoid the bigger fish!
The S.E.A. Aquarium is located in Resorts World Sentosa, underneath the Maritime Museum. It opens at 10am till late evening around 7-8pm. Expect the place to be quite crowded during peak periods or late afternoon and it will be harder to look at the tanks. Try to be there early in the morning if you want a more relaxing, quiet environment in the aquarium.
You will probably need to spend at least two hours to fully experience every part of the aquarium. The aquarium is 100% indoors and underground, so don’t worry about hats and umbrellas. Be sure to bring more clothing as it is rather cold inside!
Admission to the aquarium is priced at SGD 29 for adults and SGD 20 for children aged 4-12 and seniors aged 60 and above. The S.E.A. Aquarium can be accessed via transports into Sentosa, like the monorail, buses and stroll along the boardwalk.
