    I found Rs. 100 ticket for an adult to be expensive, but on the other hand the aquarium was good. Loved the different types of fishes in it. The illusion glass is something new, as you move towards the glass, your head will take a spin . The corner big thanks that shows the underwater ecosystem is wonderful. There were sharks , eels, starfish, tortoises and a variety of big fishes and a variety of small fishes. In just under 30 minutes , you'll finish the whole aquarium.

    Nice and good place for Parents who have children, because this place has so many curious lives for children. During this corona pandemic tickets of this place is only online available on SMC application . And if you want to visit it try to book advance for minimum 2 to 3 days for Saturday and Sunday. Sharks and Skelton of whale is value for money.

    There is variety of fishes here. Marine and fresh water fish have in different floor. There is very beutiful fishes here. You can enjoy this place very well. In this corona time this place is less crowded so you can spend more time in that area. Due to corona below 10 years child are not allowed so before going to this place you have insure that you don't have child below 10 years. Now times a new online ticket booking system has come. This is not hard but you to do it yourself. There also a garden type area where you can rest. And feel the nature.

    I had heard a lot about this place. So I went here during my one visit to Surat with my friends. The entry was not free it is Rs 100 per person. We were four friends. It has all kinds of fish packed in different different aquarium. It also has one large aquarium for shark although that was not so big. It has tortoise as well. Every type of fish was in different aquarium. The size of aquarium was sufficiently large and the variety of fish was too many. It was very nice seeing all kinds of fishes. It has a walk way and aquarium was on the side of the walls. This place was worth visiting. This one is the nice place in Surat. So pay a visit in your next trip to Surat.

    A good aquarium for kids of all age. Good variety of fishes. Was disappointed as the ACs was turned off when we visited 23 October, 2021. I guess more care & maintenance still needs to happen for such a beautiful place.

  • 4/5 Avani P. 7 months ago on Google
    The first is the best I'd say. I enjoyed the first floor fish views. The second floor is a marine section and i thought it would have huge fish and something amusing of course. So i didn't enjoy the second floor view idk for some reason.. anyways it is pretty well maintained! Definitely worth visiting 🐟 I have so many pics of the ambience and fishes as well but won't spoil it for y'all. Hehe 🤭

    Visiting Jagdishchandra Bose Aquarium, the first multidisciplinary aquarium of India, is truly an awe-striking experience. Housing ginormous tanks, the aquarium is home to more than 100 species fresh, brackish and marine waters. The biggest attraction here is the remarkable jelly fish pool, and outstanding double storeyed shark tank and an amazing dolphin tunnel.

    The Jagdishchandra Bose Municipal Aquarium is a captivating experience for aquatic enthusiasts. With a diverse array of marine life, the aquarium offers an educational journey through underwater ecosystems. The well-maintained tanks provide clear views of vibrant fish, and the informative exhibits enhance the overall learning experience. However, the facility could benefit from additional interactive displays to engage visitors further. Overall, a visit to the Jagdishchandra Bose Municipal Aquarium is a delightful exploration of the underwater world.

    Excellent aquarium developed by Surat Municipal Corporation. Very nice facility with ample parking place. Nicely maintained premises. Good facility of wheel chairs . Collection of fish & other water animals are good & should be expanded further. Though entry ticket is bit high rs 100 per person, i support this for good maintainance of the place & premises.

    Nice place to hangout especially for the kinds. You can find a lot of variety of fishes, Including sharks and turtles. Currently due to covid , they are only accepting online payments. Hence if you are planning to visit in the next few months, do visit smc website and book the tickets beforehand

  • 4/5 Satya Nand M. 2 years ago on Google
    Now a days only online booked tickets are allowed. So the people coming from long not able to visit. Nice place for Children.

  • 4/5 Kuldeep J. 2 years ago on Google
    Current Rules: 1. Above 65 years and below 10 years are not allowed. 2. Only fully vaccinated people are allowed; certificates would be verified. 3. Online booking for tickets is mandatory. Very few tickets per slot allowed so book 2-3 days in advance if you plan to visit. Was not able to get tickets and had visited the place today thought this information would help people planning to go.

  • 4/5 Zulfikar B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great Ambience. Worth the pay (Rs. 100 for Adult : 19 to 65) COVID TIMES: Keep your double jab e certificates ready, as they will scan and verify. 2 Issues: 1. You dont get uber cabs easily for going back from here, so keep your transport arranged (not sure if this is always or only in festive times) 2. Facility of drinking water is not up to mark. You can finish the whole visit in about 1 to 1:15 hours. Photography/Videography Allowed, but try avoid using FLASH.

  • 4/5 Yogesh S. 2 years ago on Google
    Again one of the must visit place in Surat. Well maintained with good collection of Marine Life. Due to Covid situation counter ticket has been suspended. Only online ticket allowed to enter. One has to access smc site or app for purchasing of tickets. Kids will fall in love with the place.

  • 5/5 Kaushik M. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice place.. But u should confirn tickets online and must have completely corona vaccination

  • 4/5 chaitanya s. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place to experience aquatic life in Surat. I spent just close to an hour and quite enjoyed it. It's spread across two floors and there is no place to store luggage (I was traveling and had to carry my suitcase with me) but it was good.

  • 5/5 abhinav B. 2 years ago on Google
    Tickets need to be booked online. Only fully vaccinated (adults) and kids below 18 (not vaccinated) are allowed entry. Ample space for parking. Amazing collection of fishes including sharks, snakes, stringray and many more.

  • 5/5 Utkarsh A. 2 years ago on Google
    Clean and neatly managed, excellent place to see various species of fish, also has a whale skeleton on display that washed ashore in 1990.

  • 4/5 Krunal K. 1 year ago on Google
    It is a government aquarium and the entry charge per adult person is around INR 100 and Per kids around INR 40. The fishes within it are of mixed species from around the world. The overall experience was definitely informative. The aquarium is well maintained and tidy.

  • 5/5 Jignesh K. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place for kids and adults. Plenty of varieties of fish. Overall building needs to be updated for more amazing experience

  • 4/5 Sweety Y. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is clean and calm but there should be more security to guard. The aquarium needs a Tourist guard too to brief about the fish. There some fish to be added like Sea Horse and Star fish, There were bit common fishes it’s time to upgrade a bit to attract tourism in the city.

  • 3/5 Shreyasi M. 1 year ago on Google
    The aquarium is good and okayish maintained. 1. There are two floors which have around 30 odd specimens of fish. 2. There are three small sharks in a separate enclosure. 3. Washrooms are unclean. 4. Entry fee is ₹100/- for adults which is not worth. 5. Canteen service not available on premise

  • 5/5 Ankita M. 8 months ago on Google
    Well maintained, and easy to navigate through, this aquarium has 2 section upper is for fresh water fish and lower section for marine biodiversity (an attempt to replicate deep sea ecosystem) ,there is warning for hypoxic conditions in lower section

  • 5/5 Nikhil L. 5 months ago on Google
    Aquarium 🪸 🐠🐟 Awesome but, when we visited at 11:30 AM there is no whale. Missing main content...

  • 4/5 Parth G. 4 months ago on Google
    Good fun place to bring kids. Aquarium isn't bad by any means, but would've enjoyed it more if it had one more floor or something more cause it genuinely ended really quickly, we were done with it in like 45 minutes only.

    The Jagdish Chandra Bose Aquarium in Surat is a mesmerizing aquatic haven. The cleanliness and variety of fish in different tanks make it a pleasant visit. A must-see for fish lovers. 🐟

  • 5/5 Prem 5 months ago on Google
    Enjoyed…ticket price is 100 ₹ per adult person which seems expensive to me only to watch few fishes in the tank but overall I enjoyed the place and saw Shark first time in my life.
