    The deep monsters exhibit is one of a kind. BTS tour is worth the money and time!

    The large variety of aquatic life is cool, but the ability to be face to face with a whale shark is amazing,

    Almost exactly the same as the Singapore aquarium on Sentosa. If you've been there, you can skip this one.

    It may appear to be a giant food court built in a wrap around fish tank but i is still worth experiencing.

    This place is a clusterf@#k. No organization, staff not helpful at all w/keeping order, & visibility of exhibits is very limited w/the crowds. Perhaps coming on a weekday, when school is back in...

    Looking for a bathroom? Skip the one on the main level and go up the stairs next to the food court. There's a little known one on the right.

    There's a big window into the Ocean Voyager exhibit in the ballroom, second floor, past the restaurant. It's not obvious, so even on a busy day, it's relatively quiet. Beautiful.
