This popular spot exhibits about 800 kinds of creatures, such as colorful tropical fish, seals, Steller sea lions, as well as inshore fishes. You can try your hand at fishing and eat the fish you catch on the spot, take a backyard tour to see what goes on behind the scenes at the aquarium, or go barefoot and touch the creatures at the world's largest touch pool, Jyanome Beach. Depending on the time of year, there is also a night tour of the aquarium, a very popular event. The main attraction is the enormous triangular tunnel in the large tank. Watching the fishes swim above you will make you feel as if you are in the ocean. The event is particularly popular among families and couples.
