Tokyo Sea Life Park

Across the water from Tokyo Disneyland, the Tokyo Sea Life Park provides educational fun for the whole family. This well-designed aquarium features numerous habitats that mimic bodies of water from around the world, like the Caribbean Sea, Indian Ocean, and Atlantic Ocean. Kids will especially adore the penguin exhibit. But this remarkable sea life showcase appeals to amateurs and experts alike: "One of the more amazing sights to experienced aquarium-goers are the deep sea invertebrate exhibits with giant spider crabs and even giant deep sea isopods," reports one TripAdvisor user.

The Tokyo Sea Life Park is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. with last admission at 4:00 p.m. It is also closed on Wednesdays. Admission costs 700 JPY (about $9 USD) for adults and 250 JPY (about $3.25 USD) for kids. Located in Kasai Rinkai Park, the aquarium is only a five-minute walk from the JR Kasai Rinkai Koen metro station. For more details, check out the Tokyo Sea Life Park's website.
