    (Translated by Google) 2015/3/21 It's not a big facility, but the Underwater Observatory is interesting. You can go down the stairs to the sea and see the real sea. It was interesting that the boxfish (?) Was floating. I crossed the bridge to the Underwater Observatory, which was a little scary. (Original) 2015/3/21 あまり大きな施設ではありませんが、海中展望塔が面白いです。 海中まで階段で降りて行って本物の海の中を見ることができます。 ハコフグ(?)が漂っていて面白かったです。 海中展望塔までは橋を渡っていくんですが、これがちょっと怖かったです。

    (Translated by Google) First of all, in the aquarium, the fish in the sea near Kushimoto in the aquarium are immediately noticeable. Large, plump fish are swimming leisurely. You can also see the feeding if the timing is right. The food is the fillet of krill and saury. If you go to the back, you will find things that you don't usually see, such as shrimp, crabs, and big ara. A sea bug like a nematode? Is also on display. If you go further back, you will reach the sea turtle area. Many sea turtles that live long enough to grow algae on their shells are a masterpiece. There is also a small turtle in the building, so I think it will be a good opportunity for children to come into contact with life. I also personally recommend the top of the underwater tunnel (2nd floor). If you look over the aquarium from above, you can overlook the big fish. I will review the tower under the sea again. (Original) まず水族館の方ですが、入ってすぐに目に付くのは、水槽に入った串本近海の魚たちです。大きく丸々育った魚たちが悠々と泳いでいます。タイミングがあえばエサやりを見ることもできます。エサはオキアミやさんまの切り身と言った所です。奥に行くと海老や蟹、大きいアラといった普段お目にかかれないものたちがいます。センチュウのような海の虫?も展示されています。さらに奥に進むとウミガメエリアにでます。甲羅に藻が生えるほど長生きしているたくさんのウミガメたちは圧巻です。建物の中には小亀もいますので、お子さんも命と触れ合う良い機会になると思います。 あと個人的にお勧めなのは水中トンネルの上(2階)です。上から水槽を見渡すと大きな魚たちを一望できます。 海中のタワーについてはまた今度クチコミ致します。

    There are lots of marine park in japan… I’ve been to some other places but maybe there’s still a lot that I haven’t been to…

    (Translated by Google) Of course, an admission fee is required to tour the sea, but I was able to see many sea turtles without paying the admission fee, and watching the graceful movements of the turtles relieved my stress. (Original) 海中を見学するには、もちろん入館料が必要になりますが、入館料を払わずにたくさんのウミガメを見ることが出来、亀の優雅な動きを見ていると、ストレスが解消されました。

    (Translated by Google) I visited after noon on weekdays. There is a free parking lot and you can use the goto regional coupon. It was said that electronic coupons could not be used, only paper coupons. I like sea turtles, so I've always wanted to come here. The building itself was small and small. The sea turtle outside was very big. Aquarium? It was very small, but it was good because I could see the sea turtle. (Original) 平日のお昼過ぎに訪れました。 無料駐車場があり、goto地域共通クーポンが使えます。 電子クーポンは使えず、紙クーポンのみとのことでした。 海亀が好きなので以前からこちらに来たいと思っておりました。 建物自体は小さく、こじんまりとしていました。 外にいる海亀はとても大きかったです。 水族館?としてはとても小さかったですが海亀を見られたので良かったです。

    (Translated by Google) You can have a valuable experience such as seeing the inside of the sea and seeing sea turtles nearby. The glass-bottom boat got drunk. (Original) 海の中が見れたり近くでウミガメを見れたりと貴重な体験ができます。グラスボートは酔ってしまいました。

  • 2/5 ママ三児 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) You shouldn't expect it. I think it's a good place to go for the purpose of feeding and meeting sea turtles. This fee is honestly high. (Original) 期待はしない方がいい。うみがめに餌や会うのを目的に行くなら良い場所だと思います。この料金は正直高いです。

  • 4/5 TUYOSHI M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The admission ticket is a little expensive, but I think it can't be helped because there are maintenance fees. It ’s good because you can see various fish. (Original) 入場券は少し高いですが、維持費等もあるので仕方ないと思います。 色んな魚が観賞できるので良いですね

    (Translated by Google) It's a memory aquarium I used to go to when I was a kid! (Original) 子供の頃によく行った思い出の水族館です!

  • 3/5 karugame 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is getting very old. I think it will be difficult to attract customers unless it is a major renovation. The underwater observatory is always muddy and there aren't many fish. Only the sea turtle pool is spectacular. (Original) かなり老朽化してきています。大規模な改装でもしない限り、集客を図ることは難しいと思います。 海中展望塔はいつ来ても海が濁っているし、魚もあまりいません。唯一、ウミガメプールだけは見応えがあります。

  • 5/5 Shingo H. 5 years ago on Google
    This aquarium is not big, honestly, compared to Osaka Kaiyukan, etc. The good thing about this place is, you can touch baby sea turtles! Kushimoto is like the home of those turtles and people there take care of them.

  • 4/5 Angus B. 5 years ago on Google
    It’s a pretty standard Japanese cafeteria and gift shop.

  • 3/5 Manuel B. 5 years ago on Google
    Very informative and fun place to visit. I have to deduct one star for the price and another one for the somewhat old interior and the very small space for the animals. I'm NOT an animal-rights-activist, but i think this concept should be modernized to educate people about sealife

  • 3/5 Daniel Y. 5 years ago on Google
    Went there for lunch. Surprising cheap but the place is located in a very rural district, nothing to explore. The roads that run along the coastline are great for relaxing drives.

  • 4/5 Sandro N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place. Expensive though.

  • 5/5 Kira 6 years ago on Google
    My best favorite aquarium. My family enjoyed experience of feeding turtles.

    Not a very big aquarium, but its still nice to visit and can see big sea turtles. Overall 4 stars!!!

  • 4/5 mark d. 1 year ago on Google
    On the small size but the open air sea turtles are mesmerizing, lovely underwater observation (base ticket) and boat tour (additional charge). There is a bus shuttle to the near by town train station where you have full access to city amenities.

    (Translated by Google) An aquarium where you can enjoy the sea of ​​Kushimoto, a registered Ramsar site. Not only the aquarium, but also the underwater observatory, the semi-submersible ship, the boarding of Stella Marine, nearby You can also dive! After all, I recommend Stella Marine. The sea of ​​Kushimoto seen while removing the coral reef is lively. When I first saw a wild anemone, I was impressed. However, don't lick the aquarium, big fish, etc. The sea of ​​Kushimoto is reproduced wonderfully. [Discount information] A great deal on a common ticket with the Whale Museum! It will be nearly 1000 yen cheaper. [Recommended way to enjoy! ] Choose a sunny day above all! Otherwise, when you get on the underwater observatory or the ship The transparency of the sea becomes low, making it difficult to observe. (Original) ラムサール登録地の串本の海を楽しめる水族館。 水族館だけでなく、海中展望台や、半潜水型の船、ステラマリンの乗船、近くには ダイビングもできる! なんといってもおすすめはステラマリン。サンゴ礁を除きながら見る串本の海は生き生き。 初めて野生のクマノミを見たときは感動した。 とはいえ、水族館もなめてはいけない、大きく育った魚たちなど、 串本の海を立派に再現していている。 【割引情報】 クジラの博物館との共通券がお得!1000円近く安くなる。 【おススメの楽しみ方!】 何より天気の良い日を選ぼう!でないと海中展望台や船のった時、 海の透明度が低くなり、観察しにくくなる。

    (Translated by Google) In front of the aquarium is the northernmost table coral in the world, which is registered under the Ramsar Convention. From the observatory, you can see many fish including tropical and subtropical fish. (Original) 水族館の目の前は世界最北端のテーブル珊瑚が広がる群生地でラムサール条約にも登録されています。 展望塔からは熱帯・亜熱帯の魚を含め沢山の魚を見ることが出来ます。

  • 5/5 いちごゴリラ 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It seems that the children enjoyed swimming and feeding the turtle shell. I visited for the first time and it was a lot of fun. I enjoyed the tour because I could see the sea there. (Original) 子供たちには、亀甲泳ぐ姿や餌やりがとっても楽しかったみたい。初めて見学したけどとても楽しかった。海のそこをみれるとこもあり楽しく見学させてもらいました

  • 5/5 Mas K. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's not that big for an aquarium, but I enjoyed it enough. Most of the creatures on display are local sea creatures, but there are plenty of creatures such as sea anemones and sea stars that are not often found in other aquariums, and I think it is worth seeing by itself. It's a lot of fun to feed turtles. The underwater view is also very valuable because you can see the actual bottom of the sea and the swimming of fish. Please note that underwater sightseeing boats and turtle touches have been canceled due to the influence of corona. (Original) 水族館としてはそんなに大きくありませんが、充分楽しめました。 展示している生き物は地元の海の生物が主ですが、イソギンチャクやヒトデなど他の水族館ではあまりない生物が充実していてそれだけでも見る価値はあると思います。 亀に餌やりができるのがとても楽しいです。 海中展望も実際の海の底や魚の泳ぎが見られてとても貴重です。 海中観光船や亀のタッチ等がコロナの影響で中止になっているので注意

  • 3/5 坂口亮二 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I was looking forward to the sea turtles, but I wondered if the moss was stuck on the shell and left unattended. It may be the same in nature. I remember that the sea turtles I saw in other aquariums were in a beautiful state, so isn't the environment good? I think the next visit will be a few years later. (Original) ウミガメを楽しみにしていましたが、甲羅に苔がタップリ付いていて放置されているのかと思いました。自然でもそうなのかもしれませんが。他の水族館で見るウミガメはキレイな状態だったと記憶しているのでヤハリ環境が良くないのでしょうか?次に訪れるのは数年後かと思います。

  • 4/5 World T. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It was Saturday, but the facility was quiet, probably because many people were refraining from going out. I was able to see it slowly. The staff were all kind. (Original) 土曜日でしたが外出を控えている人が多いのか施設内は閑散してました。 ゆっくり見ることが出来ました。 スタッフの方は皆さん親切でした。

  • 1/5 テルテル坊主 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Compared to other famous aquariums nationwide, the scale is small. And the admission fee setting is strange. At most, about 300 to 500 yen for adults is a reasonable scale. (Original) 他の全国有名な水族館に比べると規模がしょぼい。そして入場料設定がおかしい。せいぜい大人300から500円程度が妥当な規模。

    (Translated by Google) The aquarium is small and neatly organized so you can enjoy watching it without getting bored. After that, you can see the sea turtles up close. You can be impressed by the size and texture. And finally the underwater aquarium! !! You can see the actual nature of the fish. If you are staying at Nachikatsuura, we recommend that you visit. (Original) 水族館はごじんまり、綺麗にまとまっていて飽きずに楽しく見ることができます。 その後は、ウミガメを間近で見ることができます。大きさ、質感に感動できます。 そして最後に海中水族館!! 実際の自然の、魚の様子を見ることができます。 もし、那智勝浦で宿泊するなら、足を延ばすことをおすすめします。
