From the title above, you should be able to guess what this post is all about right? This post is about a trip to the SEA Aquarium at RWS! I think i mentioned before recently that the 2 latest attraction in Singapore would be the Adventure Cove water park (which i went last month!) and SEA Aquarium which i went few weeks ago with the *cousins! YAYY
Met up with everyone at Vivo and had brunch at Coffee Bean before heading over to Sentosa!

#outfit of the day!
The 8 of us all ready to visit the World's Largest Aquarium!
Regretted not purchasing the tickets online after looking at the crowd. We were queuing halfway until a middle aged man approached us to ask if we are interested in getting tickets from him at $25 (usual price - $29) He had this whole stack of tickets with him so we were quite skeptical, thinking it might be a scam until we saw someone bought from him.
Since they managed to get in with the tickets, we decided to buy from him since it's $4 cheaper PLUS it came with a $5 resort world voucher which can be used for food or souvenirs in RWS. So technically we paid $20 for admission only! Please note that i'm NOT encouraging you guys to buy your tickets from strangers. It's at your OWN risk. The safest approach would be to queue up and buy from the counter like everyone, or purchase it online at the usual price.

Our tickets!
Group photo before entering the Aquarium! It's better to take photos outside first because it's quite dark inside, LOL
THE ENTRANCE! Felt that i was entering underwater world, LOL
Right before you enter the entrance, there's already this huge tank on the left side which houses a "sunken ship" In my mind i was like, "is this the so called largest aquarium?" because it's already quite huge. Sua ku. AHAHHAHAHA
Everyone busy snapping photos of the fishes.
Spotted a diver untangling this super long tube, i think it's like a vacuum to clean up the tank or something...
The crowd that day. Oh my tians. By the way, it really feels like underwater world.
Why does it look like i'm taking photo with an almost empty tank. Where are all the fishes?!
Lobster and Hokkaido snow crab. First thing that came up to my mind was buffet. Hee hee
Little black and white jelly fishes! So cuteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
For all you know, everyone is just looking at a very good LCD screen. AHAHHAHAHAAHA
One of the interaction section of the place - Touching Starfishes. LOL
Not really worth the squeeze if it's crowded. The staffs are really friendly though.
BEHOLD THE WORLD LARGEST AQUARIUM!
2 stingrays in one photo hor! Apparently the above stingray (the one in black) is the only giant oceanic manta ray in captivity. Apparently the dolphins are not here yet, and it was planned for whale shark to be included in the aquarium but they scrapped the idea... This might be the world's largest aquarium but it still lack the quantity and species :(
You see the one in Osaka (which used to be the 2nd largest):
Can you believe it! Oh my tians.
Last portion of the Aquarium which is the Sharks!
Really quite a lot of sharks i would say. It's was feeding time when we were there. Quite a sight!
Group photo at the end of our tour in SEA Aquarium!
For $29/person, i would say it's not really worth it. I'm not sure if they are going to fill up the tanks with more fishes and species so that it doesn't look that empty, or when they bringing in the dolphins but honestly i felt that it was a little disappointing. It's just like another underwater world, but with this HUGE tank that everyone is raving about. Oh wells.
Perhaps in the future if i happened to visit the aquarium again, it would be better?
