  1. I loved going here as a kid, I need to go again now that I’m back. The giant Shark Jaw near the tank with a couple sharks was always my favorite part

  2. I’ve been to this place a lot, but the best time was when they were feeding the whale sharks, and all of them were swimming vertically, I only ever got to see that once, it was amazing

  3. When I first checked-in on Okinawa in 2019, they had 3 whale sharks, two years ago they only had 2. Three weeks ago when I went they were down to just 1. I’m afraid if I ever go back they’ll be down to two sea bass and a sea snake. <sad>

  4. Rest in peace, Oki-chan(the dolphin that had been loved by visitors for over 50 years and recently passed away.)🥲

  5. Probably the best aquarium in Japan with Osaka second, maybe Otaru third.

    It was amusing that the feed for the sea turtles was just lettuce

  6. I love going to aquariums, but I almost cried when I saw the whaleshark. Such a tragedy to keep that beautiful creature captive in such a way.

  7. Only Churami? There’s a lot more to love in Oki. Especially in the outer islands.

  8. If I’m not mistaken, you can count on one hand the number of aquariums in the world with a whale shark in them. This is one of them. This one blows away the Monterey/SF/Long Beach aquariums IMO.

  9. Pro tip, the best part is the dolphin show which is free and doesn’t require a ticket. Also, the Orion Hotel has a bar which has Orion Beer. You don’t need to be a guest. Now you know.
