🪸Yas Island Sea World Abu Dhabi|An immersive underwater adventure!

🇦🇪If you can only choose one park to check in in Abu Dhabi, SeaWolrd Yas Island Abu Dhabi is definitely worth it! 🌊This is definitely the ultimate paradise for ocean lovers! This is not only one of the largest aquariums in the world, but also subverts traditional ways of playing with immersive interaction and epic filming scenes! A babysitter-level guide that highlights the key points👇 🪸Zone Guide|Six major theme areas, enjoy Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea! 1️⃣Endless Ocean|Become a photo god! - The same underwater camera position as the Fairy Sister! The 20-meter vertical viewing window allows you to stand in front of the 6-story high glass while sharks and manta rays swim overhead, creating a sense of oppression from the giants of the deep sea! The 360° circular viewing window makes you feel like you are in a submarine exploring the deep sea. From the second floor, you can also unlock the amazing angle of "floating photography". - Take the elevator in the underwater tunnel, where schools of fish swim around you, and any photo you take will look like a sci-fi movie! 2️⃣ Tropical Ocean|Close Contact - The only area with natural sunlight, the tropical rainforest, blue lagoon and flamingo island interweave into a picture, and you can get up close with parrots, pelicans and other birds, which is super healing! - Touch the smooth back of the manta ray in the touch pool (don’t touch the tail). It feels like jelly and the kids can’t get enough of it even if they touch it for an entire afternoon! - Don’t miss the Dolphin Theater Show. Sitting in the front row, you might get splashed with water by the naughty dolphins! You can also make an appointment in advance to interact with dolphins. 3️⃣ Polar Oceans|Penguin Kingdom - Arctic area: Walrus and sea otter habitat, where you can experience a 360° panoramic super-circle and simulate the impact of polar waves. - Antarctica: 6 species of penguins gather here, including emperor penguins, rockhopper penguins, Adélie penguins... Watch penguins diving, swimming, and even "fighting"! You can also observe the penguin hatching process in the transparent nursery. We saw a 12-day-old emperor penguin in the incubator. It was so cute! - In the restaurant at the entrance of Antarctica, you can sit next to the glass curtain wall and watch penguins while eating. - You can make an appointment in advance for a VIP feeding experience, learn about penguins with the guide (in English), and feed small fish under the guidance of the keeper. You can take the opportunity to touch the penguins while they are eating! It’s great to be able to touch penguins without going to Antarctica! 4️⃣ Abu Dhabi Ocean|Arabic style - The collision of desert oasis and ocean, giant sand dunes + Arabian-style architecture, a sense of one thousand and one nights! - Touch stingrays and starfish in the touch pool and feel the soft touch of marine life. - Watch the pearl diving historical drama & mermaid show at the Nahum Theatre for an entertaining and educational experience. 5️⃣ Rocky Point|Seals and Sea Lions - This simulates the waters of the Pacific Northwest of the United States, with sea lions and seals as the main characters, and the rocky coast and hidden bay scenes are realistic. - Watch seals swimming flexibly in the underwater viewing tunnel and capture the dynamic scene in the same frame. 6️⃣ Micro Ocean|Parent-child interaction - Displays deep-sea microorganisms, luminous jellyfish and other small creatures, suitable for bringing children to learn about science and combining education with entertainment. - A small indoor roller coaster that feels like cruising in the deep sea, so babies can also experience it. There is also an explorer sea base with various climbing facilities to challenge children's physical fitness. It is the best choice for taking your kids to relax! 📌 Tips: - The six theme areas are centered on One Ocean. Each area is independent. After the tour, you need to return to the center to go to the next area. - Manta roller coaster (outdoor), 360° panoramic rotating track, overlooking the entire aquarium when diving at high speed, the only screaming project in the park. The entrance is underground opposite the manta ray touch pool, height ≥ 130cm - The Dolphin Theater usually performs at 4:00 pm, and the schedule for the day can be found on the official website - Penguin interaction is open at fixed times every day, and reservations must be purchased in advance. Penguins are most active at 11 am/3 pm! - The park opens at 10:00 and we go straight to Endless Ocean to avoid taking photos during peak hours; in the afternoon we play some activities and watch some performances. - Wear white/light-colored clothes for better photos. The polar ocean area is very cold, so bring a thick coat. - Buy the "Yas Island Pass" including Warner Bros. Park and save 30% compared to buying them separately!
