π‘ Tips for Visitors
English signage is limited, so consider downloading a translation app beforehand to fully appreciate the exhibits. The aquarium accepts both cash and major credit cards, but smaller food vendors may be cash-only. Visit during feeding times (posted at entrance) to see the animals at their most active, and don't miss the outdoor observation deck for spectacular views of the Sea of Japan, especially beautiful at sunset.
