Come face-to-face with sharks and watch these incredible creatures glide effortlessly through the water, showcasing their strength and beauty. At Istanbul Aquarium, you get the chance to see sand tiger sharks, lemon sharks, sandbar sharks, and reef sharks.

One of the ocean’s most unique and beautiful creatures, rays are endlessly fascinating. Watch them wing through the water with their wide fins, gracefully swirling and somersaulting. You’ll meet varieties like the Cownose Ray, Common Eagle Ray, and giant freshwater stingrays from the Amazon.

Head to the South Pole zone to see the aquarium’s Gentoo Penguins – a crowd favorite. Did you know these short, adorable birds are also the world’s fastest underwater birds? Observe their underwater swimming skills and watch them waddle and play around in their enclosure. It’s a heartwarming and entertaining experience for visitors of all ages!

Find yourself in a dense tropical jungle in the Amazon rainforest habitat. As you meander through this zone, complete with a lush canopy of trees, and tropical temperature and humidity, watch out for vibrantly-colored poison frogs, caiman (of the dwarf variety), capybara, and its most famous inhabitants: the Red-bellied Piranhas!

There are few things more soothing than watching fish glide through the water. At Istanbul Aquarium, you get to do this in front of huge glass viewing panels. Spend some time in the observation areas in the Marmara and Western Atlantic habitats and you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the depths of the ocean.

Being surrounded by thousands of fish, like groupers, croakers, and seabass, and getting a 360-degree view of the sharks and rays swimming all around and above you is a surreal experience! Take a walk through Istanbul Aquarium’s underwater glass tunnel and experience what it’s like to be at the bottom of the sea.

The touch pools at the Istanbul Aquarium are a big hit, especially with kids. It’s easily one of the most fun spots there! Have a one-of-a-kind experience and interact with starfish and sea urchins, all under the watchful eye of the aquarium’s expert animal carers.

Don’t miss the chance to get up close and personal with the aquarium’s inhabitants during a live feeding session. Every day (except Monday) at 11am, the divers descend into the main tank shared between the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Western Atlantic, and Panama Canal zones to feed the sharks, stingrays, and other animals.

Immerse yourself in a virtual underwater adventure at the aquarium’s 5D cinema. Feel the effects of fog, wind, and water as you recline in your seats and experience the wonders of a magical marine world.
