Introduction

Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium is one of the main attractions, consisting of an Aquarium Zone and a Beach Zone. The highlight of the Aquarium Zone is the "Kuroshio Sea", which is the world's largest, two-story tank. Behind the tank, various marine creatures swim freely, including three enormous whale sharks. Just imagine standing in front of the tank, with these massive creatures swimming freely above you. It is truly awe-inspiring. If you arrive early or have enough patience, you can enjoy delicious food at a café by the tank, while admiring the magnificent view of the "Kuroshio Sea".
