#自驾游 Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium is located in the northern part of Okinawa Island, Japan. It is one of the famous aquariums in Asia and is world-famous for its spectacular marine ecological displays. The main highlight of the aquarium is the huge "Kuroshio Sea" tank, which is one of the largest tanks in the world that showcases the Kuroshio marine ecology. It contains hundreds of marine creatures, allowing visitors to watch large marine creatures such as whale sharks 🦈 and stingrays swimming gracefully in the water up close 🐠.
In addition to the "Kuroshio Sea", the aquarium also has several exhibition areas, including the "Coral Reef Tour"🪸, which displays the ecology of coral reefs. Visitors can touch starfish, sea cucumbers, etc. in the pool, as well as the "Deep Sea Tour" that showcases deep-sea wonders. The museum combines Okinawa's unique marine ecology to provide visitors with rich and diverse marine knowledge and viewing experiences. It is an ideal place for parent-child travel and learning about marine ecology.
In addition, the aquarium also offers many exciting shows for visitors to watch! The most attractive thing is the dolphin show🐬. The lively and agile dolphins show graceful movements and tacit understanding in the water, which is amazing. It is recommended to check the performance time in advance and arrive early to choose the best viewing position 😍, and the feeding show of "Kuroshio Sea" must not be missed!
Plus, there’s my favorite sea creature – the garden eel! Look at them swaying gently in the sand, so cute!
When you come to Okinawa, this aquarium is definitely one of the attractions you can't miss! ✨
