This must-see is the world's largest aquarium, and it's filled with interest at every corner. The penguins in the Cold Water Quest exhibit are really fun. They waddle around and glide through the water to the delight of children packed up against the glass. Adults and kids alike are in awe of the tunnel that runs through the Ocean Voyager area. You'll feel as if you are immersed in the ocean surrounded by whale sharks and other deep-sea creatures.

 

Visit Tips:

  • If you get there when the doors open, you'll see more of the exhibits without jockeying for position.
  • Set boundaries for souvenir shopping so that you don't blow your budget at the great gift shop.
