Pattaya's main aquarium packs thousands of marine animals into a handful of themed zones, centred on a 100-metre acrylic tunnel that lets visitors walk beneath sharks, rays and large schools of fish. Beyond the tunnel, the Touch Pool zone allows gentle hands-on encounters, the Coral Reef zone showcases a colourful reef tank, and the Giant of Siam zone is built around a sunken-ship habitat of freshwater species. Timed feeding shows throughout the day add a bit of structure to a visit and are worth planning around.
