Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World is a spectacular underwater aquarium located in the Siam Paragon mall in Bangkok, Thailand. It is the largest aquarium in Southeast Asia, covering an area of 10,000 square meters and housing over 30,000 marine animals. Visitors can experience the wonders of the ocean through a variety of exhibits, interactive activities, and educational programs.
The aquarium is divided into several zones, each with its own theme and unique marine life. The “Weird and Wonderful” zone is the first attraction of the aquarium, and it features some of the strangest and most unusual sea creatures in the world, such as the giant spider crab, the nautilus, and the electric eel. Visitors can learn about these unique creatures and their habitats, and how they adapt to their environments.
The “Rocky Shore” zone showcases marine life found in coastal areas, including starfish, sea urchins, and crabs. Visitors can observe these creatures up close and learn about their biology and behaviors. The “Rainforest” zone is where visitors can experience the lush, tropical environment of the Amazon River. This area features a variety of freshwater species, including the giant arapaima fish, which can grow up to three meters in length. Visitors can also observe piranhas, turtles, and even a colony of leafcutter ants.
The centerpiece of Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World is the “Ocean Tunnel,” which is a 270-degree view of a massive tank filled with sharks, stingrays, and other large fish. Visitors can walk through the tunnel and observe the marine life up close, including a rare pair of scalloped hammerhead sharks. This attraction gives visitors the feeling of walking on the ocean floor and experiencing marine life in their natural habitat.
Another popular zone is the “Penguin Ice Adventure,” which features a colony of Gentoo penguins. Visitors can watch the playful birds as they swim, slide, and interact with their environment. There is also an interactive exhibit where visitors can learn about penguin behavior and conservation efforts.
In addition to the exhibits, Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World offers a range of educational and interactive activities. Visitors can participate in a behind-the-scenes tour to learn about the care and feeding of the marine animals, or attend a 4D cinema experience where they can watch short films about marine life. The aquarium also provides a unique opportunity for visitors to get up close and personal with marine animals, such as feeding them with their hands.
For a truly immersive experience, visitors can participate in the “Dive with the Sharks” program. This program allows visitors to swim with the sharks and other large marine animals in the Ocean Tunnel, while supervised by experienced divers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for adventure seekers who want to experience the thrill of being surrounded by some of the ocean’s most magnificent creatures.
Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World is committed to marine conservation and education.
