    This place is so amazing. It is located at the seaside of Oarai so you can see a very new view of the ocean. We arrived there from 10am and we were able to explore the whole place. The dolphin shows are great. They also have a big food court and nice cafe. I wanna go back here.

    Convenience to buy ticket at front of the aquarium. Show is so good. Overall is perfect for family trip or those who loves aquarium. There is cafe which can have lunch inside and front of the aquarium.

    The outside view is beautiful. You can eat outside and enjoy the view of the sea. Inside the area is like a puzzle of entryway and the elevator is puzzling. Not too friendly with PWD person.

    Haven't been back here since our 2 daughters were ages 12 and 6. Now our oldest daughter has made us a very proud grandparents to an adorable granddaughter,age 1 yr.and 2 months old. She is 1/4 American, and 3/4 Japanese. Her playroom group from Horikawa preschool/ kindergarten invited all the grandparents to attend, which I gladly accepted. So glad to see our granddaughter enjoy herself running here and there keeping her mommy busy,cause just isn't that fast anymore. Our 1st daughter enjoyed this wonderful place once again as in the past with her mom (me ). We plan on visiting again in near future , so Aqua World be waiting for us 🥰🥰‼️Sincerely Amy Yano and family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧👨‍👩‍👧👫🇺🇸🇯🇵🗻🗾🌏

    Mind blowing aqua marine world , lots of jelly fish , rare species of shark , continental shelf aqua marine species, a very friendly pair of otters , don’t forget to see the dolphin show at 11.30 am and 2 pm and the extremely patient way of feeding these extinct species of fishes by their divers

    よく行きますが、イベントとかあって、飽きることがない水族館です。 年間パスポートが4000円とオススメです。2回来ると元が取れるコスパの良さです。一日では回るのが大変なので、ちょうど良いかと思います。 駐車場も無料で警備員さんがいるので安心です。パスポートを見せると、フードコートなど飲み物とか食事が割引きになります。 9月から年間パスポートの絵柄が3種類から選べるようになりました。 イルカ、クラゲ、カワウソです!デザイン一新で可愛くなってます。 イルカショーに入れなかった時は、入口入って右下の階段を降りると、会場の水槽を下から見ることが出来ます。イルカショーのイルカを下から見るのも大迫力で違った楽しみ方が出来ますよ。オススメです。 イルカショー中は、普通の水槽は人が減るのでお目当ての水槽をじっくり見ることが出来ます。イルカショーが終わると一気に人が増えますね。 館内バリアフリーですし、トイレも綺麗です。休憩用の椅子もあちこちにあります。座って魚見ながら休憩もありですよ。 昨年12月に新設さえたクラゲ展示がとても綺麗です。 暗い中で見るので、一眼レフがあると綺麗に写真が取れます。

    Aqua world Ibaraki Oarai Aquarium is quite small, the main attraction is the seal show and the dolphin show. It’s one of the attractions in Oarai near the beach. A beautiful view of the beach can be enjoyed. The souvenir shop has a great collection of wide range of items for kids and aquatic enthusiasts. Giant sharks, awesome jellyfish, various varieties of fishes and many more to see. Maximum 1.5 hrs of time could be spent including the 30 minutes dolphins show.

    Good Places to Spent 03 - 05 Hours. Scenic Places, can watch waves at Sea side. Have Small Cafeteria, where they serve delicious Curry, American Snacks & Coffee. At the Dolphin show; Dolphins & Earless Seal may splash water towards audience for fun. It will be better if you carry raincoat. Or you can buy plastic sheets (300¥) from the staffs there.

    The aquarium maintains a large number of rare aquatic species. The dolphin show is an experience to rejoice and learn about the beautiful and intelligent animals. One might think that it's wrong to train animals for such recreational activities and I agree with that. I also think that these animals are intelligent, and taken care of very well and do a display personal association with their trainers. Watching them perform is like a display of their intelligent and is a great opportunity to learn and familiarise oneself of these gorgeous species. The different tanks, especially the huge shark tank with two schools of sardines give a sense of tranquillity to the observer. Divers explain about the animals and their feeding habits at scheduled time.

    (Translated by Google) Except for the dolphin show, I usually get the impression that it's expensive, but the soba noodles near the food court and the tendon are really delicious! You can go to the food court without an admission fee, so that may be all you need (Original) イルカショー以外は普通、正直高いかなーという印象だけどフードコートのそばと天丼がめちゃくちゃ美味しい!フードコートは入場料無しで行けるのでそれだけでもよいかも

    We had a great time. Interesting and varied enough to keep my young kids' attention and not so big that they were exhausted before seeing everything. The dolphin show is impressive, but it's a long wait, first queuing and then sitting waiting for the show to start (we waited about 45 minutes total).

    DON’T VISIT! I find it so hard to see you keep these beautiful creatures in captivity while they should swim free in the ocean. I know this for you is just making money but making money on harmless animals is unacceptable. Don't let you get fooled by the smile of a dolphin. It's because of their jaw structure that it looks like they are smiling but they aren't. Please please please consider what you are doing and turn things around. If the show is over, you get to go home. They don’t.

    (Translated by Google) At around 10:55 on February 17, 2021, the attitude of men in their 50s and 60s who were picking up tickets at the entrance gate was very arrogant and the worst. Is it a person who is rehired ... I was very disappointed because the exhibition of sea creatures was good. (Original) 2021年2月17日10:55頃に入場ゲートでチケットのもぎりをしていた50代~60代くらいの男性の態度がすごく横柄で最悪でした。 再雇用とかの人なのでしょうか… 海の生き物の展示が良かっただけに、すごく残念な気持ちになりました。

    (Translated by Google) It was renewed on 12/18 and the light meal corner was renewed, and the river fish feeding corner was opened, which made it fun. I can't see penguins because of bird flu now, and it's a pity that the event has disappeared due to the influence of the new corona ... 💦 I'm looking forward to getting back to normal soon. (Original) 12/18にリニューアルして軽食コーナーも新しくなったり、川魚の餌やりコーナーが出来たりと楽しくなりました。 今は鳥インフルエンザでペンギンは見れないし、新型コロナの影響でイベントがなくなってしまってるのは残念…💦 早く元に戻るのを心待ちにしてます。

    (Translated by Google) It seems that it was renewed in December 2008. Infection prevention measures are also solid. It's sad that there are many canceled events (meal time, etc.) due to that effect, but it can't be helped. The large aquarium is powerful, the shark exhibition, which is the best in Japan, is also powerful, and the sea lion and dolphin shows are reasonably voluminous and can be enjoyed by children. There is also a roof terrace observatory with a 360-degree view overlooking the Pacific Ocean. And after all, parking is free! (Original) 20年12月にリニューアルしたらしい。感染防止対策もしっかり。その影響で中止のイベントも多い(食事タイム等)のは悲しいけど仕方が無い。 大水槽も迫力あるし、日本一というサメの展示も迫力、アシカとイルカショーはお手頃ボリュームで子供さんも楽しめる。360度見渡せる屋上テラス展望台もあって太平洋一望。そして何と言っても駐車場無料!

    (Translated by Google) A cylindrical aquarium where a group of sardines migrates welcomes you. It is reminiscent of liquid metal when it swims in a flowing manner that reflects light. The highlight is the sharks that are bred in the [World Sea Zone]. More than 50 kinds are exhibited, and the number of breeding kinds is said to be the largest in Japan. Sunfish are also bred in the area, and it is outstandingly spectacular. The atmosphere has changed slightly due to the renewal. The jellyfish exhibition zone, where about 10,000 moon jellyfish are displayed in a large aquarium, was particularly good. A large amount of jellyfish floats fluffy against the background of changing lights, and together with the healing BGM, it is very healed in a fantastic atmosphere. The dolphin and sea lion shows also seem to have different productions for each event, so I never get tired of watching them. This time, I visited at a late time, so the number of customers was sparse and I enjoyed avoiding the crowds. (Original) イワシの群れが回遊する円筒状の水槽がお出迎え。きらきらと光りを反射し流れるように泳ぐ様は液体金属を彷彿とさせます。 見どころはやはり【世界の海ゾーン】で飼育されているサメですね。50種類以上が展示され、飼育種類数は日本一だそう。 同エリアにはマンボウも飼育されており、見ごたえ抜群。 リニューアルしたとのことで、若干雰囲気が変わっていました。 大型水槽に約10,000体のミズクラゲが展示されているというクラゲ展示ゾーンが特に良かった。変化するライトをバックに大量のクラゲがふわふわと漂い、ヒーリング感のあるBGMと相俟って幻想的な雰囲気でとても癒されます。 イルカとアシカのショーも、イベントごとに演出を変えているようで、何度見ても飽きません。 今回、遅めの時間に訪れたため客足がまばらで密を避けて楽しめました。

    This aquarium is not a big one. But there is a lot to see. The areas are categorized and there are guided arrow boards to see all without missing. Don't miss to watch dolphins and sea lions show. It was very interesting. There is a very big car park. It will be very busy on long holidays. Sometimes you have to take a web ticket before you go. Example on the Golden week. After finishing watching the aquarium you can enjoy the sea view.

    Great to see some sea animals and we were able to watch the dolphin and seal show. You can spend at least 2-3 hours getting through everything. Love the souvenir options after the theatre show and exit. There’s also some food area near the souvenir shop. Great for kids to enjoy!

  • 3/5 Rhys E. 4 years ago on Google
    The aquarium itself is nothing extraordinary, but there is an option (via drawing lots - not all groups applying can join) to join a facilities tour behind the scenes of how they run the aquarium. This is something I've never seen before and it was excellent. If you're in the area, I would recommend a visit, but it may not be worth a long journey to get there. Overall, the glass is more visible and the water less clear than other aquariums I have visited, but we had a great time.

  • 5/5 Suraj M. 4 years ago on Google
    It takes your breath away !! It's just awesome. Tip - After you watch the Dolphin Show, go downstairs to Aqua Hall and experience the next show from under water view. This will give you idea what dolphins do under the water while performing.

    Beautiful place with wide variety of aqua life. Very crowded during holidays but management handles the crowd very efficiently. Timings start from 9.00am to 5-00pm. Don't miss the dolphin show every 1.30hours from 10.00am.

  • 5/5 dai10k3n 5 years ago on Google
    This aquarium is very nice, from the outside it appears to be a bit dated, and unkempt. Mind you it is in a lesser known part of Japan. But here is the thing, inside is a whole different story! Excellent exhibits, full of people admiring the aquatic life. They have an excellent shark exhibit. One of the larger aquariums around in my opinion. Would definitely pay it a visit if in the ibaraki area!

  • 4/5 小林隆之 3 years ago on Google
    2020年8月訪問。初めての訪問。 関東や伊豆の水族館はほとんど行ったが、その中でも規模の大きい方の水族館だった。 展示の中では、マンボウとサメが特徴的。特にマンボウは5〜6匹が一つの水槽に泳いでいるというのは見たことがない。 ただ、見せ方が洗練されてるかというとそうではないと思った。コロナの影響もあるのかもしれないが、水槽に苔があったり、水槽自体が曇ってて見えにくかったりと、少し前の時代の水族館な感じがする。 いい部分もあり、自粛自粛となりがちなこのご時世で、構わず水をかけるイルカショーは好感が持てた。水族館の裏側が見れる箇所もありいいものが見れたと思う。 蜜に対する対策を文句言う人がいるが、蜜が気になるなら家から出なければ良いだけのこと。水族館という観光地に「3蜜対策がなってない。」とかいうのはお門違い。コロナ対策は自分でやって自衛するもの。 個人的にはイルカショーも席を間引いて座ることになっていたし、時間ごとの入場予約制だったし、検温して入館だったし、施設的に開放換気は難しい理由もあるだろうし、経済とコロナ対策を両立させた好感持てる対策内容だった。

    Webにてチケット購入して行きました。 てっきり、入場制限されてると思って出かけたら、駐車場は、満車でした。 イルカショーも整理券をもらうのもたくさんの人。 人と人との間も近いし、結局イルカショーは、諦めました。 もう少し、コロナの感染を考えて、人を減らして欲しかったですね。

    水族館としては、外観よりも中が適度に複雑で広い為、見処満載でとても良いです。 イルカとオキゴンドウとアシカのショーもとても楽しく見処も有るが、コロナ対策の整理券を貰う為に、列に並ぶ事約30分とホールに集められて待つ事約1時間、結果的に『密』になる…

    お盆の時期は駐車場の混み具合を予測し電車で現地向かいましたが、最寄りの駅からのバスとの繋ぎが悪く、駅でかなり待たされます。子供は我慢できないので結局タクシーを使うことになりました。時期限定で構いませんので、シャトルバスの充実化が望まれます。

    あまりに無責任なコロナ対応に呆れた。 こんな商売優先で客の安全二の次の施設は潰れて然るべき。 なんの意味もなさない入場制限したふりだけのWEB予約、現地についたら駐車場が満杯で意味がわからなかった。 入口のモニタ表示の体温検査はあくまで自己確認用で、係員も置かれてないので、仮に熱があっても素通りで何の抑止力もなし。 中に入れば密の嵐で過去10回近く来たが、今回が最高の密という信じられない有様。 来たい客は自己責任でというスタンスが随所に表れていて、もう二度と利用しないことにしました。

    入場券は事前にウェブで購入。年配の方や普段ネットに触れていない人は面倒に感じそう。 10時頃に到着。駐車場は真ん中あたりに停められました。入口に消毒液あり、モニターで自動体温測定(係員さん常駐)。ウェブチケットはまとめての確認でした。 日曜日だったせいかまぁまぁ密でしたが、いつもよりはだいぶ空いていました。 ショーは整理券配布。ご飯タイムは中止でしたが、館内を歩いている時に何件か遭遇。かわいい生き物もご飯の時は野生を感じる。 生き物の名前が調べられるアプリを使えば、近くに表示がなくても簡単にわかって便利でした。 換気のために扉を開け放っているところもあるせいか、館内はすこし蒸し暑い場所もあったので適宜水分補給を忘れずに。 午後13時~14時くらいに退館しましたが、その頃には駐車場の空き待ちが列が長くできていました。

    (Translated by Google) I used to have to give up admission due to heavy crowds, but now it is vacant on weekdays due to the influence of corona. Sharks seem to be a specialty, but uh... I didn't feel the fascination of crowded people. The show was tailor-made, but is it good for small children? I want you to liven up with purely dolphin jumps and powerful performances. I could see many surfers floating in the sea without getting on the waves. (Original) 激混みで入館を諦めたことも以前はありましたが、今は平日ならコロナ影響で空いていました。サメが名物のようですが、うぅ〜ん…ごった返す程の人が集まる魅了を感じ無かったです。 ショーは、芝居仕立てでしたが、小さなお子さんなどにはあれがウケるのかな? 純粋にイルカのジャンプとか迫力満点の演技で盛り上げて欲しい。 海は、波に乗らずにプカプカ浮いているだけのサーファーが沢山見えました。

    (Translated by Google) I avoided Obon and went on weekdays in August. At the entrance, there is a mat for disinfecting hands and shoes. It is laid out soaked with disinfectant It was a flow of admission after measuring the temperature through there. Admission at 9am, really vacant I'm nervous about corona without feeling stress This time was free and I was able to relax for 2 hours. I was able to enter the dolphin show without a numbered ticket.

    Great aquarium with a wide variety of exhibits. Also have a fun dolphin and sea line performance. It's located right on the beach with an amazing view.

Also Aqua World has a live shows with dolphins, seals and other animals.

    (Translated by Google) I think there are many people who know Churaumi Aquarium and Kamogawa Sea World but do not know Oarai Aquarium.

    (Translated by Google) The dolphin and sea lion shows, which are held several times a day, were exciting and enjoyable. However, the reflection on the water surface is strong, so I think it will look better if you close the window curtains. It is difficult to understand the route, but there are many aquariums and I could see various creatures. The parking lot is large, but the frame is a little narrow. Japanese cars are also getting bigger, so I want a little more space. Especially in places with children, I open the door without thinking. (Original) 一日数回行われるイルカ、アシカショーは豪快で楽しめた。 ただ水面の反射が強いので、窓のカーテンを閉めてもらえたらもっと良く見えると思う。 順路が解りにくいが、水槽は多数有りいろんな生き物を見ることができた。 駐車場は広いが枠が少し狭い。 日本車も大型化しているので、もう少しゆとりが欲しい。 特に子供連れの場所ではドアを考えなしに開けたりするので。

  • 5/5 Barnabas 2 years ago on Google
    This is a fantastic aquarium - not too big; not too small; and rather new. They have a number of sharks and sunfish in residence along with other exhibits including a nice cascading river exhibit and puffins and otters. On our recent visit they had a very interesting and tasteful jellyfish exhibit. The dolphin and sea lion show was a clever and fun tie up with One Piece, which was much more interesting that when we were here a year ago. The food court is also very tasty and affordable. The clam ramen is fantastic and you can never go wrong with the tempura shop either. They have non-seafood restaurants too 👍

  • 5/5 New C. 1 year ago on Google
    An excellent place with kids over weekend; the baby shark campaign in 2022 was the reason that brought us here, but the variety of sharks was more than expected and there were more interesting programmes (but you have to come very early to get seats for those special programs like backyard tours, otherwise they are fully booked way before noon.

    Lovely aquarium, perfect for a day trip from Tokyo. It's hugely popular with couples (i.e. good place to bring a date) and families with kids. You can easily spend 3 hours there if you grab a snack at the food court inside. suggest If you have the time, I suggest watching the sea lions show twice, once from underwater and lastly from above; it's a delight! The venue itself is quite large, 5 floors with big tanks, a rest area with bar/restaurant and an external terrace towards the seaside, close to the penguins habitacle. Definitely check the otters and penguins! They have also a "touch" tank, where you can actually play with some sea animals (e.g. fish, sea stars, etc.), but right now it is closed off due to the pandemic; you can still see the animals inside the tanks, but can't touch them. The buses from and to Mito Station are quite rare, but manageable with good scheduling.

  • 4/5 Don F. 1 year ago on Google
    Parking is aplenty, but I always seem to arrive to a backside entrance and need to drive up a highly inclined road. Need to have reservations before arriving, but I don't know why becuae it is really crowded. The entrance is equipped with an automatic body temperature reader. Multiple measurements simultaneously. Be early for the live dolphin show or you won't get in. Humid and a little warm inside, but a great outing.

  • 4/5 Alexander W. 1 year ago on Google
    Can get quite crowded, but it's a fun aquarium to visit, if you don't live too far away, e.g. in Tsukuba. The food stalls could be better, although there was a good one selling Takoyaki and Kani-kama.

    It take roughly around 2 hours to get there from Utsunomiya city by car and it is worth the trip!! Besides spectacular view along the roadside, one can really enjoy the beautiful panoramic view from the top of aqua world building! Fantastic!! Aqua world is located just right in-front of the ocean! The aquarium displays varieties of marine animals, from the sharks to the dancing sea lions!! Enjoyed a lot and really had a good time!!!

Note : There are special experience tour each day: Aquarium back tour, Meet with Dolphin, Meet with Seal, Talk with Dolphin, Meet with shark. These are limited in numbers each day during about lunch time. Be sure to check out if you are interested (you must buy the tickets at the entrance)

    For 2000¥ you get to enter the aquarium which will take up 3-4 hours of your time. It is big with many signages in english to introduce the fishes and also some live performance of seals and dolphins conducted in japanese. The aquarium has a dining choice inside but prices are 1000¥ ish. You can buy dolphin plushie via a gacha service which for same price of 1000¥ you can win either large medium or small size. Great for family and conservation efforts.

  • 4/5 Aadil Anas K. 9 months ago on Google
    Small food vendors are available in front of the aquarium. Fish feed are available within the aquarium. There are a large variety of fish. You should plan to visit the place during the span of at least 2 dolphin shows. It takes maximum 3 hrs to view the place. Recommended to see the dolphin show from the glass area as well as the stadium area. The blue ambience of the aquarium is great but it is a little crowded. There are various technological inventions related to the fishes. The Dolphin show is of two types of performances that alternate.

  • 3/5 J T. 7 months ago on Google
    I went on a regular weekday during the summer holiday season, and while there was no wait to get in, the parking lot was quite full and there were small screaming children and families EVERYWHERE. I cannot imagine coming here on a weekend or a holiday, it must be so insanely crowded. Anyway, as someone who likes looking at fish and sharks, it was nice, but the "sea parks are animal cruelty!!" side of me was really saddened by how small some of the exhibits are. The seals are swimming in endless circles in what is basically a deep children's swimming pool... So are most of the sharks. Lots of them crammed into a relatively small tank where they're all either resting bunched up together or swimming in circles. And there is nothing in their tanks for enrichment of any kind, aside from animals like the otters.

    It's a large place where you can enjoy with your children. There is a small museum inside. Once you get to the top, you can look out over the ocean and see the surrounding scenery.
