Located inside The Dubai Mall—the largest shopping destination in the world—the Dubai Aquarium offers an unforgettable underwater journey. Home to one of the most diverse collections of marine life, this expansive indoor aquarium brings the ocean floor to life.
Right above the aquarium, the Underwater Zoo offers close encounters with fascinating creatures like penguins, jellyfish, seahorses, piranhas, water rats, and crabs. One of its most talked-about residents is the enormous King Croc—measuring over 5 meters and weighing more than 750 kg, it’s truly a marvel of nature.
The Zoo also hosts rotating exhibits such as the engaging “UAE’s Night Creatures,” simulating the desert environment after sunset and introducing visitors to nocturnal wildlife of the UAE.
