Take a break from your Dubai Mall adventure and dive into a mesmerizing underwater world at the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo. Home to a colossal 10-million-litre tank with over 33,000 aquatic animals across 140+ species — including the world’s largest collection of sand tiger sharks — this record-breaking attraction lets you walk through the famous 48-meter tunnel with stunning 270° views as sharks and rays glide overhead.
Your ticket includes it all: the Underwater Zoo on Level 2 with the legendary King Croc — over 5 meters long and 750+ kg — the adorable Gentoo penguins of Penguin Cove, and an exclusive guided behind-the-scenes tour revealing how this marine wonder is cared for every day. Optional hotel transfers make it completely hassle-free.
