The aquarium is amazing. We have been twice now, and count it as our favourite place on Okinawa. The tank-side view in the cafeteria is very special.

Excellent prices and reliable portal

Whether it’s to see a giant oceanic manta ray casually gliding by in the massive Kuroshio Sea Tank, or to get a close-up look at whale sharks, yellowfin tuna, and yellow and blueback fusilier, Churaumi Aquarium is going to delight you like nothing else. The aquarium is also home to the world’s first large-scale exhibit of coral reproduction, made up of more than 800 different coral colonies.
