The sharks and mantas massive tank, one of the biggest in the world, is worth the entrance fee, even though other attractions are free like the dolphins show.

Better to take 4+ hours at here as there are so many great views in the aquarium and the dolphins theater, and the pearl beach. Nice place and worthy to come again.

If you have to go before 4pm, advance adult tickets are 1660 yen each at the FamilyMart (intersection of routes 449 & 114) versus the standard price of 1850 yen. Cash only

First dolphin show at 1100 am next at 1300 pm. Plan it well to get the best seats. Worth to go twice. Once to fully enjoy show, 2nd time to take pics 😆

The dolphin show, manatees and sea turtles are all free outside the aquarium. Inside there's an impressively giant tank but otherwise not quite worth the admission.

Touching the starfish and sea cucumber is one of the highlights here. The aquarium is another one

Cool and varied exhibits here and the whale sharks are definitely the highlight.

Expect large crowds at the main attractions and lots of walking. This place is quite expansive, if you include the Okinawan village. But it is very enjoyable.

Great & one of the largest aquarium in the World. Truly amazing
Rob ChaytorJanuary 1, 2016
It's a good drive away from many hotels, but worth it just to sit and marvel at the whale sharks

beautiful moment of today. i spent more than 45min in this spot.
Mike BennettNovember 17, 2013
Avoid Sundays to beat the crowds. Early morning on weekdays from 8:30am is best time.

💀 Animal abuse and cruelty by Japanese. Manatees stuck for 50 years in literally a 3x3m cage. Sharks with scars from infighting stuck in a small pool. Dolphins even tried to escape from here. 1/10

So beautiful! Lots to do and dolphin show is great
Brenda TamJuly 15, 2016

Check also the upper deck to see the containers from above

Check in after 4:00 for reduced admission. Open 8:30-8:30 during the summer months
MaruchanAugust 19, 2013
There is an option to go over the aquarium and see the fish world from the top ;-)
Kenny NgApril 19, 2016
The Ocean Park will refund you half of the ticket price if you arrived there after 4pm.

駐車場はP7が良いです！初めて来た時は不安になりますがとにかくP7が見えるまで車は走らせて下さい。美ら海水族館の入口前は撮影スポットなので係員風な方がウロウロしててお願いすると写真撮ってくれる？みたいです。噂に違わず素晴らしい水族館なので見学してるとあっという間に時間が経ちます。やっぱりジンベエザメは凄かった。その横でイルカが交尾はじめたのが個人的にはハイライトでした。

沖縄本島北西部、海洋博公園内にある、沖縄を代表する観光地の一つ。水族館内では日本最大級の「黒潮の海」、総展示槽数が77槽。「沖縄の海との出会い」をテーマにし、イノー、珊瑚礁、黒潮の海、深海と様々な海の生物を紹介している。ジンベエザメはキャラクターとなっており、マンタや無料のイルカショー等が人気。建物は4階建てとなっているが、3階から下へ降っていくようなコースが組まれている。

新元号になった初日、雨の中糸満市から4時間以上かかって水族館駐車場に入庫できました！もう達成感しかありません！れナンバーわナンバーの車だらけ！いナンバーが有れば祝賀ムードになるのに！肝心の水族館ですが、バカでかい水槽ガラスに巨大生物が現われた瞬間のパシリム感がすべて。二歳児も大満足です。写真は立駐の位置確認用に撮った所在番号です。ご参考まで。

츄라우미 수족관은 오키나와를 간다면 두말할 필요없이 무조건 가볼 곳이라고 생각합니다. 한국에서 구경하기도 어려운 다양한 종류의 해양생물들을 볼 수 있습니다. 어떻게 수족관에 데려왔는지 그 과정조차 궁금한 심해어 같은 것을 눈앞에서 볼 수 있어 좋았어요

수족관 안도 좋지만, 날이 좋으면 근처 공원도 둘러보세요. 매너티 수족관 근처에는 작은 해변도 있습니다.

ダイバーの水槽の中の解説ショーの時、水槽前にいるとダイバーさんの持った水中カメラに映してもらえます。二人以上できていれば、ダイバーカメラを映しているスクリーンを撮影すれば良い思い出になりそうです。

Been here 5+ times
大きな水槽の餌やりでは座り席の上の方だとよく見えないとアナウンスがあります。餌を吸い込む様子をよく見たい人は、喫茶店の指定席テーブル（30分入替予約制)か水槽の目の前で立って見るのをオススメします。
