Dream world below the sea


 
Giant tanks bring viewers face to face with creatures from the deep  
If watching scuba divers play with fish right in front of your nose would raise your eyebrows, then you should take a trip to Vinpearl Underwater World.

 

 

The aquatic park, situated on Hon Tre Island off well-known Nha Trang beach city, is home to more than 3,000 fish with some 200 different species from around the region and the globe.

The 3,400 square meter oceanarium is the country’s largest and a unique place for fun, leisure and educational experiences under the sea.

Coming face to face with sharks, turtles and all types of weird and wonderful sea creatures, you can explore different areas of the world’s oceans – North Asian climate zone, South Asian climate zone, Amazonian climate zone, and Coastal climate zone.

Since its opening in January, Vinpearl Underwater World has attracted hoards of local and foreign visitors to view the phenomenal design.

The aquarium features a 90-meter-long moving sidewalk which moves along a curved tunnel.

It’s an exciting journey underwater, displaying reefs, corals and marine life in their natural state.

Imagine traveling two meters below the waves where giant sea turtles, stingrays and jelly fish swim so close, you feel like you can reach out and touch them!

Don’t miss the opportunity to watch professional scuba divers swim with colorful schools of fish, feeding them.

The fun-filled experience is also an opportunity to learn and understand more about ocean life.

Vinpearl Underwater World is the creation of New Zealand’s Marinscap Project Limited and Technocom Group.

What began as an idea from international diver Kelly Tartion and marine civil engineer Ian Mellsop, the oceanarium has become a breath-taking reality.

It’s a wonderland which is improving people’s awareness of the importance of ocean conservation.

In coming months dolphin shows will also be available.

The underwater park is a part of Vinpearl Land, which also has an amusement park and resort and spa.

People interested in other leisure activities beyond the undersea journey will find it an amazing spot for dancing, dining, or shopping.
