Marine Life Park: S.E.A. Aquarium – World’s Largest Aquarium

I completely agree with the facts and figures showing that there is a very good reason why people are lining up for hours in the Marine Life Park: S.E.A. Aquarium. One of the newest and best travel highlights in Singapore is the in Resorts World Sentosa – the Marine Life Park. It’s the Guinness World Record Holder of the World’s Largest Aquarium and true enough, this oceanarium does not disappoint in any way.

The best route to go is via the Sentosa Boardwalk. Not only is it inexpensive, it allows people to be at their own pace when going to this place. This is very helpful to photo enthusiasts like me ‘cos I get to take photos without worrying too much of a hurried travel time. Also, from the entrance of the Sentosa Boardwalk, it’s a maximum of ten minutes of walking to get to the S.E.A. Aquarium. Just follow the buzz sounds of people coming from the long line queuing at the ticket office.

The S.E.A. Aquarium is an underground mammoth. The place is so huge, so complete, and so alive with all the ooohhs and ahhhs of people checking out the variety of marine life in this place. It’s worth at least more than half a day of intense exploring this area.

The kids here are the very essence of this oceanarium; they are as animate, and as lively as the school of fishes here. The kids ages from 2 - 14 years old, coming from Singapore, Japan, Australia, Philippines, and parts of Europe and US, are as just so remarkable to observe. You’ll hear the astonishment and flabbergasting sounds from the marine life discovery they find out. Every stop and corner is an epiphany and favorite moment for these kids and it’s just refreshing to see such kind of consistent and unique bliss.

Of course, the S.E.A. Aquarium is all to blame. From the prelude story in the Typhoon Theater, to the exit area, the place is complete with all kinds of aquatic animation. Once you enter the place, you will be greeted with a cobalt lighting coming from the first of the many aquariums you will see. Every aquarium both is diverse and distinctive, from Strait of Karimata & Java Sea, Strait of Malacca & Andaman Sea, Persian Gulf & Arabian Sea, Red Sea, South China Sea, to Shark Seas. There are giant spider crabs, blue flasher wrasses, white-rayed antenna gobies, queen angelfishes, and even a squadron of magnificent manta rays to name a few.

I think it’s more than the title of World’s Largest Aquarium that makes people line up at this place. It just is difficult to choose once you see the entire aquarium. Every item seems better than the next one and you can go in loops to check everything out, because it’s that good of a place. Other than the snorkeling stint I did before, I was never a fan of marine life, not until I checked this one out. It changed my perspective radically. It felt like I was scuba diving the whole day, across different waterscapes, minus the heavy scuba gear, plus the joyful innocence shared by the kids here.
