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 glass-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 a number of environmental and education projects.
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 an extra fee has to be paid.
