Visitor tips

  • Plan around feeding times: Review the daily feeding and talk schedule before your visit to catch popular events. These are crowd favorites and offer great photo ops, so arrive at the tanks 10–15 minutes early to grab a good viewing spot.
  • Time your visit wisely: Allocate 2–3 hours for a full experience, including exhibits, feeding shows, and photo stops. Arrive before noon to avoid school and tourist groups. Weekdays are quieter than weekends, especially in the morning.
  • Don’t miss the special experiences: Try the 4D Cinema Experience and behind-the-scenes tours for a deeper look at marine conservation efforts. The Diving with Sharks program is a must for thrill-seekers.
  • Book interactive zones early: Some add-on experiences like the Glass Bottom Boat or diving programs have limited availability and fixed time slots. These often sell out by early afternoon!
  • Facilities for families: Restrooms are available inside, but some are compact and may have lines during peak hours. For nursing, diaper changes, or a quiet rest break, head to the spacious baby care rooms on the M and G floors of Siam Paragon.
  • Take advantage of photo spots: There are designated photo zones with props and marine-themed backdrops, especially at the Ocean Tunnel and Seahorse Kingdom.
  • Exit through the Gift Shop: The only exit route passes through the gift shop, so plan extra time (and possibly baht) if you're visiting with kids. It’s also a great place to grab marine-themed souvenirs that aren’t available elsewhere in the mall.
