Reviews
The place is small but there are lots of things to do. The seal is fun to watch, and there are many aquarium displays inside. The clione display is interesting and clean. Next to it is the museum which included in the fee, which are full of interactive aparatus to teach kids. There is an interesting exhibition of antartic ice expedition. The planetarium show lasts for 30 minutes and is a must go. I spent a lot of time in here and it was fun.
The most northern Aquarium in Japan ?
Very educational and informative Aquarium, but in small scale
Entrance fee ¥500 per adult
Good place to visit with children when you have spare time.
My cycling destination ended here is much more beautiful than the other end of tip. Oct 2017
Seal pens are too small. Cruel but it’s Japan so no surprise.
Nice aquarium a bit old but nice
the view of the lighthouse and ocean is quite peaceful. the weather was good when visiting this spot. It is even possible to see a subtle view of rishiri mountain
Certainly not the biggest or newest aquarium, but if you have a rainy day while in Wakkanai, it's a good way to spend some time with your children.
