The destination is Café Ocean Blue, located on the first floor of the aquarium.
The designated seats right next to the tanks have a 30-minute time limit.
Since reservations are not accepted, aim to be there first thing in the morning, when there are few people.
Right next to the big tank

The enormous whale shark and manta rays float right next to you.
This creates the illusion that you are playing with the fish in the big tank.
A relaxing time on the sea floor

Watch the magnificent migration of fish right before your eyes and feel as though you are the only person at this big aquarium.

Manta rays swim elegantly overhead.
They swim along, free and jovial.

The enormous whale shark passes before your eyes.
The designated seats that let you see the expressions of the fish up close are highly recommended.
