Hear The power of the ocean at The Grand Aquarium - Ocean Park Hong Kong

The Grand Aquarium is located at Aqua City in The Waterfront zone. The place is remarkable, with a big water fountain in front of it. The fountain can dance by the music. You can escape to here for a moment from tropical heat outside.

Starting out from the sunny sea shore, you will find the darkest depths of the ocean floor. At this point, you will be able to hear the power of the ocean as water roars through a blow hole. Vibrant corals undulate as you pass the spectacular tank and stroll through a beach adorned with sand sculptures.

At the touch pool, children get hands-on experience with sea cucumbers and sea stars as they develop an appreciation for sea life with all 5 senses at an early age.
Marvel at the beauty of a solar eclipse before you 'dive' deeper underwater, where bioluminescent creatures glow in the dark and the mysterious shadows of fish flicker by your shoulder. you will get a taste of the profoundly beautiful ecosystem surrounding coral reefs at the Reef Tunnel

As you descend further around a gigantic swirl tank, look up and admire the schooling milkfish as they glitter like a kaleidoscope of stars.

As you walk through the bubble tunnel, remember to peer through the world's largest aquarium dome, which stands at an astounding 5.5m in diameter!

Then, take a final dive down into the abyss, where some of the ocean's most bizarre creatures live, before reaching the climax of your journey – an awe-inspiring 13m wide acrylic viewing panel behind which 5,000 fish from over 400 species meet you eye-to-eye!

So wander around and take your time leisurely to enjoy it!
