About this activity

Explore one of the world's largest suspended aquariums in the heart of Dubai Mall, housing over 33,000 marine species across 10 million litres of water. Walk through an enormous acrylic tunnel surrounded by sharks, rays, and exotic fish, then discover the Underwater Zoo's reptile zones featuring everything from giant crocodiles to pythons and iguanas.

The Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo is one of the world's largest suspended aquariums. Featuring one of the world's most diverse collections of marine animals, Dubai Aquarium can hold 10 million liters of water and illuminate the wonders of the sea floor. Dubai Aquarium is the world's largest suspended acrylic aquarium, home to over 33,000 fascinating aquatic species. The building rises to the third floor of the world's largest shopping mall, Dubai Mall. The Aquarium offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience marine animals, including a 40-year-old giant crocodile weighing 750 kg, pelagic fish, piranhas, penguins, lizards, snakes, and sharks, among others.

There are three zones: the Rainforest, the Rocky Shore, and the Living Ocean. An important feature of the underwater zoo is the Insect Wall, Wall Mounted Glass Exhibits, Iguana Enclosure, Burmese Python Enclosure, and Tree Snake Enclosure. Get up close and personal with one of the ocean's deadliest predators, the shark. Discover thousands of exotic marine species up close in a 10-million-liter aquarium without an air tank.
