Sea World in Bangalore: marine fish and an underwater tunnel at Palace Grounds
What to expect
This is an indoor aquarium, not a marine park with large animal shows. Set your expectations by what is actually inside:
- Marine and freshwater galleries: including the moray eel, tarpon, alligator gar and sun catfish.
- India's longest underwater tunnel: walk under the water with fish above you.
- Jellyfish room: glowing jellyfish and reflective walls.
- Ocean-view seating lounge: sit and watch the fish.
- Indoor waterfalls.
- Diver feeding: every day at 6:30 PM.
- Mermaid show: complimentary on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 PM, 3:00 PM, 5:00 PM and 7:40 PM, subject to availability. Confirm on the mermaid page.
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.
The live moments are the diver feeding and the mermaid show. If you want to know exactly which species are here, the fish page has the list.
