It’s unbelievable to be able to see so many kind of sea life in the middle of the Dubai Mall, beautiful experience for kids and grownups.

Rising to the third floor of Dubai Mall, the aquarium is among the city’s most popular attractions, enjoyed by adults and children alike. It is home to 140 species of sea life and offers many incredible ways to experience the underwater world. Stroll through a 48-metre tunnel, with the aquarium enveloping you from overhead and around. It’s a complete fish-eye view, with sand tiger sharks and stingrays swimming overhead.
The Dubai Mall Aquarium and Underwater Zoo is an absolute marvel that took my breath away! The sheer size and diversity of marine life housed here is simply awe-inspiring. The highlight of my visit was the captivating country-themed sections, each showcasing unique aquatic wonders from around the world. Quite expensive with all the experiences and photo opportunities, but just so great for kids and adults. Kids can even see and take a picture with a mermaid 🧜♀️ 😍 Shark feeding is also good, as well as visiting the penguin enclosure. Take a ride in a boat with transparent floor, later learn about how jellyfish procreate, grow and develop.
Whether you're an animal enthusiast or simply seeking a mesmerizing experience, the Dubai Mall Aquarium and Underwater Zoo is a must-visit. Prepare to be enchanted by the wonders of the deep as you embark on this unforgettable journey.

The experience was absolutely incredible, encompassing both the depths of the underwater world and the breathtaking sights above. It was truly an adventure worth embarking on. Having visited various aquariums around the globe, I must admit that this particular one surpasses them all, making it the epitome of excellence.
This place is incredibly disappointing. It looks awesome from outside, but it’s not worth spending a single penny on entering the aquarium. The tunnel is short, full of people so you can’t take a normal photo, or enjoy what you see because everyone is walking up and down. The other part of it just has far too many animals in a far too small place. I wouldn’t recommend visiting the place, keep your money and spend it in the mall instead.
Great experience.
We been there (a group of adults) and we had fun I believe that kids will really enjoy it a lot.
So much to see many different kind of fish and sea creatures and all of it inside the mall
