I was glad that there was a staff member who could speak Japanese. I told them my reservation at the ticket counter and waited. The boarding point was close, so I had a beer while I waited. (It's a little pricey.) I think it's more beautiful after dark. There were only a few snacks and drinks. It was quite rocky, but I didn't get seasick. There was a toilet on board. It was a lot of fun. Thank you!

Booking the ticket went smoothly, so we were able to get in straight away. You can go back and forth between floors 98, 99 and 100, so you can go to the café (highest Starbucks!) and then enjoy a different view. We thought it was really nice!

It’s cheaper than buying it on the official website. It’s easy to use if you buy it in advance. You don’t have to buy it when the time comes. But remember to wear a hat when entering, because some activities require commercial photos.

Nice, worth a visit, however the place is not big and the consumption inside is not high. Also buy Busan day pass includes admission, do not buy tickets directly

Amazing experience, I was so relaxed after it. The bath was new for me, as you need to get on it naked but for them is normal so it is fine. I went at 1 pm, it was that crowded but I noticed after 3 pm there was more people. I totally recommend it, it is part of the K experience and totally worth it. The food at restaurant was tasty and good price. The only thing to improve is that no one give you indications, it might not be needed for locals as they are very used to how it works but for a foreign they should take some time to explain the different rooms and locations. I was a bit lost at the beginning.

The space is either large or small, filled with all kinds of marine life and diverse fish. You can also have close contact with starfish. There are various feeding shows, and there are even sharks! Awesome

It is very convenient to scan the code directly with the electronic voucher to enter the museum, and the price is cheaper than buying it on site. In addition to watching the animals in the aquarium, you can also watch the exchanges and activities between people and underwater animals.
