Aquaria KLCC

Aquaria KLCC is an extensive oceanium that houses thousands of aquatic animals. From colourful fish like lionfish, piranhas and seahorses to dangerous tiger sharks, stingrays and large turtles.

The Aquaria creates a nice atmosphere where you’ll feel immersed into the ocean, as you walk past and through huge aquariums of various shapes and sizes, sorted by themes that recreate their natural habitat. One of it’s most impressive attractions is the 300 feet or 90 meters long glass tunnel through a huge aquarium where you can see sea creatures swimming on all sides around you.

The feeding schedule of the animals is spread out over most of the day, so there are plenty of opportunities to see the feeding frenzy. Aquaria contributes to several animal conservation programs and you can see the animals here are well taken care of.

For the more adventurous travelers among us the oceanium also offers a diving experience where you can swim between several types of sharks. For the less experienced swimmer you can also get into an underwater cage to experience the sharks up close.

Aquaria KLCC can be found inside the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, which is located next to the Petronas Towers. So it’s easy to combine with a visit to the Petronas Towers. You can also combine it with a shopping trip to the neighbouring shopping mall Suria KLCC, where you can find signs pointing towards the oceanium. Aquaria KLCC can also be reached by taking the pedestrian bridge above the street from the shopping mall Pavilion KL to the KL Convention Center.
