About This Tour

Located in the heart of the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo houses over 33,000 aquatic animals across more than 140 species. The centrepiece is the world's largest acrylic panel โ€” a 32.88-metre-wide, 8.3-metre-tall window into a 10-million-litre tank of marine life.

Walk through the 48-metre underwater tunnel and watch sand tiger sharks, giant groupers, and rays glide overhead. Then explore the zoo floors to discover reptiles, otters, penguins, and much more.

This experience is perfect for families with children and anyone fascinated by marine life. Add-on experiences such as shark diving, glass-bottom boat rides, and shark encounters are available.
