Headed out to Resorts World Sentosa's S.E.A. Aquarium today with mom. Upon arriving, we were surprised there was a long queue on the outside. Initially, I thought that since we already had the tickets, we could enter immediately. Upon querying the staff, we were told that if we want to skip the Q, we need to top up $10 more for each ticket! After queuing for about 15 minutes, we got in...But alas, we didn't realise there's an even longer Q at the basement leading to the aquarium's entrance! It's a nightmare joining the snaking Q!
Finally, after a seemingly long 1 hour, the queue seems to move faster & we entered with throng of visitors! It was not easy to squeeze for a space to enjoy watching the sea creatures.... Anyway, such touristy place I would usually just visit once & that's it!
Touted as the world's largest aquarium, S.E.A. Aquarium featured more than 100,000 marine animals from over 800 species across 49 habitats. Based on its brochure, there are 7 sections of the aquarium; Shipwreck Habitat, Discovery Touch Pool, Ocean Journey, Open Ocean, Ocean Dome, Moray Eel & lastly the Shark Seas.
I had not step into an aquarium for at least a decade! Couldn't even remember when was the last time I went to the Underwater World! I brought both my dslr & Fujifilm compact camera along. Most of my shots were shot using my dslr & it was challenging as the fishes were swimming & people were either blocking or pushing! It only became slightly better after the mid-point, as the crowd dispersed into various areas...
Some photos from my 1.5 hours exploring the aquarium to share!
Beautiful white leafy Seadragon
Discovery Touch Pool
Stingrays always seems to have a smiley face &
when u look up from underwater,
they are like 'flying' in the water!
Cute eels that like to embed themselves in the sand, with just their heads showing!
Simply love these jellyfish blooping in the illuminated waters
