    The place is amazing for kids and grown ups as well It's great for a family day out There's few different animals ( wild cats.. Owl.. Lizards turtles.. snakes) And the penguins ofc The music in the aquarium is very suitable with the atmosphere It's really amazing There's a place to sit and observe the view At the end your kids can color any animal they choose then they scan it and put it in the aquarium it's fun The ticket is 5kd per person (babies under 2 is free) the ticket includes entrance for Discovery Place area where kids can make basic scientific experiments and play as well My daughter enjoyed the bubble experiments a lot

    Genuinely a lovely place for the kids to visit and I'm happy it's still well maintained over the years, needs a bit of an overhaul but the aquarium is very nice and the staff are lovely. Any kid will have a blast seeing all the different types of creatures. I could stare at the large fish tank for hours. Try going early to avoid huge crowds

    Very nice place to visit in Kuwait city, it will take you only 1 hour on the average. It's a wonderful place specially for kids and teens, the discovery area is only for kids regardless of what they are saying at the ticket booth, there are a quite nice coffee shops and restaurants inside with an outdoor sea front view

    The place is nice and tidy. Very nice activities and events. The downside is the price. It is exaggerated and forbidden. Entry for large families is very expensive. I wish the admission price were for large groups and families. suitable. So you are encouraged to visit the center

    Good place to visit with kids specially. Variety of marine species are on the display with proper description. Informative and enjoyable experience. If you are following google maps to reach the place better search for “Scientific Center paid parking ”. Ticket price may vary. Aquarium and discovery place price is 5 Kd. Kids below 2 years are free.

  • 4/5 Sherif El E. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good place for the kids to enjoy. Sometimes there are tons of uncontrolled kids that are annoying. But in general my kids enjoyed it. There another aquarium in Kuwait that is bigger and newer. I dont recall its name. It is better equipped than this one.

    The most beautiful destination in Kuwait. Amazing beach view and the wonderful aquarium and science park. Kids would love to see and experience this and of course for adults too. Very friendly staffs always ready explain make it more interactive and interesting. Sadly you can't see any crowd over here mostly less than 10 visitors at a time.

    It's a great destination to be visited by families, friends, tourists.. a wide variety of wildlife animals & sea life creatures. Kids will definitely love it. - Parking lot is available but not for free. - KD5/- per ticket for both the discovery place & the aquarium.

  • 4/5 Tamás F. 2 years ago on Google
    The Kuwait Aquarium is located in the Science Center (KSC) in Salmiya. It’s one of the most visited places in the city. The ticket price is reasonable, 4 KWD for adults and 3 KWD for children. It takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour to see everything, so the Aquarium itself is not too big, however there are other great entertainment options in the KSC, such as the IMAX movie theater. If you want to avoid the crowd I recommend you to visit in the morning hours, right after opening.

    It is a beautiful place with the second largest aquarium in the region, with over a hundred rare species. The discovery place is indeed an interesting place for kids with interactive facilities to kick-start their scientific temper..

    The Aquarium at The Scientific Center is a great place to visit. iMax theat and explorer's area for all ages is located inside the Scientific Center. Costa Coffee, Starbucks Coffee and Pizza Hut are located inside as well. Currently due to Covid-19 the Aquarium and facilities are closed but the restaurant and coffee shops are open. Walking area is also open.

  • 4/5 Praveen R. 2 years ago on Google
    It's one of the must-visit places in Kuwait. A bit expensive but if you have kids you should visit once. Kids will enjoy the views & will surely like the place. The tanks are full of fish & watching the sharks and other fishes swim in front of them would be mesmerizing. Now they have Discovery Place in addition & it's a great place to educate the kids about various scientific methods. The only concern with this place is that they don't conduct the shark feeding sessions on a National Holiday and weekends & this must be considered as the majority of the people would visit on these days.

  • 5/5 Badr Al A. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best destinations in Kuwait.

  • 3/5 Reem K. 2 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Hina S. 2 years ago on Google
    Its a great place to take children for a fun and educational trip and equally fun for adults except if you had your childhood here it has not changed or upgraded much, so would appreciate if they can add new aquatic animals or make changes to make the place more exciting

  • 1/5 Hassan Al Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Horrific experience ... The smell is not accepted and there are no diversity in the creatures... Pets stores in Kuwait are better in fact ... Poor destination to be honest.. I hope it will get better after finishing the renovations

  • 4/5 Mhmd Hamza A. 2 years ago on Google

    The museum includes the exploration room which was a lot of fun and the aquarium is small but the bottom to ceiling part with the sharks is cool

  • 3/5 bkgourmet 1 year ago on Google
    Because I've seen Monterey aquarium in California ( huge and loosely) and another in Malaysia, this is an okay aquarium. It's small but nice enough if I had my toddler with me. It's part of the Kuwait science museum. 5 k.d. to get in. It was worth checking. Part of it is not an aquarium, but different animals like snakes, desert animals, would cats...
