Singapore Oceanarium to open in Sentosa on July 23

The new Singapore Oceanarium – previously known as S.E.A. Aquarium – is set to welcome visitors in Sentosa from July 23, after about three months of renovation works.

The facility will be three times larger than its predecessor and will feature 22 zones. Visitors will get to see various spaces of the ocean – from shallow waters to deep sea – and explore the ocean in different time periods, from the prehistoric era to present day.

One of the exhibits is Ocean Wonders, home to one of the world’s largest kreisel habitats and thousands of moon jellies. A kreisel tank is a specialised one used to house delicate marine creatures such as jellyfish.
