Underwater World

Underwater World Singapore Pte Ltd, commonly known as Underwater World (???????) is an oceanarium located on the offshore Singapore island of Sentosa. Opened in 1991, it has more than 2,500 marine animals of 250 species from different regions of the world. The oceanarium is underground and it is owned by HawPar Corp. The Underwater World's ticket includes admission to the Dolphin Lagoon at Palawan Beach.

Underwater World has a 83 metre long travelator that moves visitors along a submerged 6.0 mm thick acrylic-windowed tunnel from which they can look at an array of marine life including coral reef, stringrays, moray eels, turtles, sharks, and other fishes.

Underwater World is also involved in environmental and educational projects such as the Living in the Ocean Programme, Ocean Ambassador Programme, Coral Club.

The Underwater World provides exclusive venues to host events such as ocean-themed functions.

 

Dolphin Lagoon

The Dolphin Lagoon is home to some Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins, also known as the pink dolphins. Several "Meet-the-Dolphins" sessions are held daily to allow visitors to enter the waist-deep pool and interact closely with the dolphins. The ticket to the Underwater world & dolphin show does not include the direct contact to the dolphins for which a photo-coupon of S$15 have to be purchased.

On 6 December 2006, Underwater World Singapore launched three new attractions — an interactive stingray feeding pool, a display of small marine reef species, and 'Fish Reflexology', Singapore's first fish reflexology spa, where two species of doctor fish gently nibble away at the dead skin on visitors' feet. The new features cost S$650,000.
