From getting the chance to view colourful fish from around the world to thrilling encounters with sharks, the Manila Ocean Park offers a fun filled day for the entire family. Travellers looking for a hotel in Manila that is close to this well known attraction can stay at The Heritage Hotel Manila. Located only around 5 kms from the aquarium, this Manila hotel is an ideal starting point to your adventures in the city.

One of the best family attractions in the Philippines, the Manila Ocean Park has a variety of themed sections that give you a chance to view animals and fish that one would otherwise not get a chance to view. One of the most popular sections is the Trails to Antarctica which is home to Humbold penguins and an ice slide. The Aquanaut Voyage gives you the chance to go underwater while wearing a specially designed helmet as you get up close with the fish that swim around you. For those who dare there is the Shark Encounter where you will be submerged in a metal cage coming face to face with sharks. There is also a Sea Lion Show at the site along with a fish spa and even a display of birds of prey ensuring a memorable day out.
