The last place to visit is the Aqua Museum. With over 100,000 animals of 500 species, this is one of Japan’s largest aquariums. Along with the regular exhibits of fish and other animals in their natural habitats, there is also a “sea creature show,” the aquarium’s showpiece which is held several times a day.

This show provides an excellent chance to see all kinds of sea animals perform in spectacular entertaining style.

After the show has finished, it is time to move on to the observation tank. This new water tank is one of Hakkei Sea Paradise’s greatest exhibits. With a depth of 8 meters and a capacity of 1500 tonnes of water, it is just as if looking at a real ocean.

Manta and stingrays provide an amazing impact on this enormous panorama of the sea.
