What makes it 76% Solo-Friendly: Aquaria lets single travelers explore 10 000 m² of themed tanks, attend shark feedings and linger for photos at will, yet the 1–2-hour route may feel brief for hobbyist divers.

We had such a great time at Aquaria Phuket! My daughter especially loved the stingrays and the penguins, those were her highlights of the day. The aquarium is clean, well laid out, and full of interesting marine life to see. It’s a fun and family-friendly place, and a perfect activity in Phuket if you’re looking for something exciting indoors. Highly recommended!

Personally I liked this aquarium more than the one in paragon. Lots of mini shows, dances, feeding sessions, opportunity to feed sharks, there’s an outside section, part of a sunken battleship is in one of the aquariums. Overall it was a really cool experience that will never be forgotten.

The children really enjoyed the activities of feeding the sharks and the sting rays (additional cost). The reptiles and spiders are an interesting addition. A nice place for a few hours visit, especially with kids. Located in a big mall so it can be combin...

The vibes were great and it felt lik...
