One of the most family-friendly attractions in Thailand, the Phuket Aquarium also doubles as a major marine biological research station and conducts research on commercial fisheries, tropical reef ecosystems, and hatching endangered sea turtles. Open daily, the aquarium is filled with various species of animals that visitors can meet in the many exhibits and the 10-meter-long underwater glass tunnel. Some of the zones allow visitors to see models of big and rare fish, get close to various marine animals in the touch pool, or see mythical mermaids in the underwater mermaid cave. More adventurous visitors can try out scuba diving in a safe and friendly environment.
