Real experiences from real travelers
We bought the skip-the-line tickets and it was worth every penny. The theming is incredible, really feels like you are in Atlantis. The touch tank was a highlight for my 6-year-old.
The aquarium itself is beautiful, especially the main tank. It gets quite busy on weekends, so go early. The combo ticket with Aquaventure is the best deal.
I booked the Ultimate Snorkel experience. Swimming with the sharks and rays in the Ambassador Lagoon was unforgettable. The guides were professional and made me feel very safe.
The attention to detail in the ruins is stunning. It is not the biggest aquarium in the world, but it is certainly one of the most beautiful. Good for a 1-hour visit.
Very relaxing atmosphere. We did the Behind the Scenes tour which was fascinating—seeing the fish hospital and how they prepare the food was very educational.
My parents loved sitting by the big viewing pane. It is very wheelchair friendly which was important for us. A bit pricey but standard for Dubai.
If you are not a certified diver, try the Dive Discovery. It's a great introduction. The water is clear and the sheer number of fish is mind-blowing.
It's beautiful but you can walk through it in 45 minutes. Make sure to catch the divers feeding the fish to make the visit longer.
