Underwater Zoo

Explore a fascinating aquatic world

Continue your journey at Underwater Zoo and learn more about what amazing creatures inhabit both our rivers and oceans.

Located on Level Two above the Aquarium tank, Underwater Zoo leads you through three ecological Zones; Rainforest, Rocky Shore and Living Ocean.

Watch out for these aquatic creatures at Underwater Zoo: Otters, Piranha, Humbolt Penguins, Caiman Crocodiles, Lionfish, Giant Spider Crabs, Seahorses, Garden Eels, Archerfish, Arapaima, Water Rats, Paddlefish, Cichlids, Nautilus and many more amazing aquatic animals in 40 individual aquatic displays.

Look straight down into the 10-million litre tank on a Glass Floor hovering above the aquarium! Kids love it!

Also you may catch a behind-the-scenes glimpse at Aquarium life, where our curatorial staff prepare fish food, our divers get ready to take the plunge and our brave customers opt for a Shark Dive.

At Underwater Zoo, you can ride the Glass-Bottom Boats*; reach out and touch our Rock Pool inhabitants; and catch a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the Aquarium Viewing Panel.

* Purchase the Glass-Bottom Boat ride ticket at an additional cost to your Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo entry ticket .

This is where the land meets the sea, a rugged, harsh environment where only the tough survive. In our Rocky Shore, visit a Humboldt Penguin colony and view several Giant Spider Crabs. If you don't mind getting your hands wet, you can also reach out and touch some of the more hardy rock pool inhabitants.
