What makes it 91% Kids-Friendly: Children up to 12 touch starfish, solve Ranger-pack quizzes, colour fish that appear on a big screen, and watch lively feeding talks; stroller paths, toilets, and lockers let parents relax during the visit.
Why 1–2 hours visit duration is ideal for with kids: Interactive zones and feeding shows take about 1–2 hours at a kid-friendly pace.
Interactive Rockpools:
Kids gently touch starfish and sea anemones under staff guidance.
Tip: Go early to avoid crowds and wear socks to keep feet clean.
Ray Feeding Show:
Children help feed stingrays and learn about their bodies.
Tip: Arrive 10 minutes before start to get front-row spots.
Underwater Tunnel:
Walk through the Ryūgū Castle tunnel surrounded by sharks and rays.
Tip: Visit at quieter times (midweek afternoons) for better photo ops.
Digital Colouring Zone:
Kids draw marine animals and see their art swim on a big screen.
Tip: Encourage drawings ahead of time to jump into the fun immediately.
Ranger Mission Pack (optional):
Solve quizzes in each zone to earn a Junior Ranger badge.
Tip: Pick up the kit at the entrance counter as soon as you arrive.

The aquarium isn't very big, but it's very pretty. It has a good variety of fish, and the decor is very pretty. You can also take the opportunity to visit Legoland right next door. Outside, depending on the day, you'll find some festivals with craft and food stalls. The aquarium has a very pretty blue color, which makes the photos look better.

🎟️ I don't think it's worth getting the combined ticket with Legoland. ⏱️ You can walk through the whole thing in just 10 minutes. 🐠 Just a few aquariums and touching starfish is the only real activity. 😐 Nothing particularly interesting.

Ticket set available to purchase together with LEGO LAND. It's a small house aquarium and decorated with LEGO blocks. Could spend half an hour here after done with LEGO LAND.

I liked this place, but i feel it lacks content, it lacks more fish and more stuff to interact with. I paid for the backstage tour, it was only in Japanese, which is good, so I can practice my Japanese, the guide was nice, but it wasn't either a big deal. This could've been included in the whole package as well.

Great little place. We did the behind the scene tour and it was really interesting. The tour is in Japanese only. But as we were the only people on the tour as we came on a weekday, the guide made a huge effort to ensure we understand. She did everything from actions and using her phone to do translation to English. The behind the scene tour was pretty good.
Check daily feeding show schedules, as times change on weekends and Japanese holidays.
