NOT-QUITE-Under-the-Sea Aquatic Experience
Saying goodbye to summer doesn’t have to be a sad affair for your kids. Cap off the summer season with a fun activity that has an educational slant. A recently popular venue can be the Manila Ocean Park located at the back of Quirino Grandstand in Rizal Park. This is the Philippines’ first world-class Oceanarium.
Manila Ocean Park recently partnered with World Wildlife Fund-Philippines (WWF) to optimize the learning process and assure the visitors of the right level of awareness. It also aims to show that oceans are important in human & world survival. Truly, a visit in Manila Ocean Park is more than just a fun “fish” experience.
The sections which divides the Oceanarium are: "Agos"; "Bahura"; "Buhay na Karagatan"; "Pating"; "Ang Kailaliman"; and "Laot", practically reflects the water source flow from fresh water to the ocean. You will be fascinated with what the Oceanarium has to offer; fish in all sizes and colors on display, multiple hues of coral reefs, 220 degree curved acrylic walkway tunnel, an experience of an ocean life and a lot more.

Manila Ocean Park is open from 10am – 9pm, daily with an entrance fee of PHP 400 and PHP 350, for adults and children, respectively. As it draws a number of visitors everyday, expect a long queue in ticket booths. It is best to go as early as you can. If you get hungry, there are a number of kiosks and food stores in the area. For a pleasurable dining experience, the Ozeano Fusion Restaurant which is located at the 2nd level offers buffet at PHP 600 per head.
Manila Ocean Park also features an extraordinary service – fish spa. Here you can dip your feet into a pool where a “doctor fish” nips dead skin of your feet. So, grab that camera and schedule a visit with your kids. Have the experience of fun and learn!
