The National Aquarium in Abu Dhabi is the Middle East's largest: 46,000 marine animals across ten themed zones, from Gulf mangroves and reefs to an Antarctic zone with live penguins and a predator zone with sharks. The route runs as a journey through climate belts, with scheduled feedings and a touch pool with rays.

The current price is shown on the selected option.

Questions and answers

Which ticket should we take?

For a first visit the standard entry is enough. All Access is for feedings and interactive zones; BFG adds the behind-the-glass feeding programme.

How does it compare to the Dubai Mall aquarium?

This has more zones and animals and costs half as much, but it's in Abu Dhabi; Dubai Mall has the famous tunnel right in the city.

Are there penguins?

Yes — the Antarctic zone has penguins, with scheduled feedings; access is included in every ticket.
