Biggest aquarium in Bangalore? Home of India's longest underwater tunnel

What "biggest" means here

We do not publish a ranking by floor area or tank volume, so we will not claim to be India's largest aquarium. What sets the visit apart is the tunnel. You walk through it with marine and freshwater fish swimming above and beside you, and it is the part most visitors remember. Read more about it on our underwater tunnel page.

What else is inside

• A wide range of freshwater and marine fish, including the moray eel, alligator gar, tarpon and sun catfish.
• A jellyfish room with reflective walls.
• Indoor man-made waterfalls.
• An ocean-view seating lounge.
• Interactive zones and educational displays.
• Fish feeding by an expert diver every day at 6:30 PM.
• A complimentary mermaid show on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 PM, 3:00 PM, 5:00 PM and 7:40 PM, subject to availability. Confirm at the counter on the day.
• What we call India's first ocean restaurant.

Note: Mermaid show timings keep changing. Always call +91 96063 11881 or check with the staff at the ticket counter before you come for the mermaid show.

Plan on 1 to 2 hours for the full route.
