Jeju Aqua Planet | Your Guide to a Smooth Visit

| Your guide to a smooth visit. When traveling to Jeju Island, Jeju Aqua Planet is an absolute must-see! Here, you can get up close and personal with mysterious marine life and experience the magic of the ocean. Below is a super detailed guide for your visit👇 📍 Location & Transportation The aquarium is located at 2829 Saekdal-dong, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. From downtown Jeju City, it's about a 40-minute taxi ride, convenient and fast, but a bit pricey. You can also take the bus. First, go to the Seogwipo Intercity Bus Terminal, then transfer to a bus heading towards the Jungmun Tourist Complex and get off near the aquarium. Taking the bus saves money and allows you to enjoy the scenery along the way, but pay attention to operating hours and transfer information. 🕙 Opening Hours & Tickets Opening hours are generally 09:00 - 19:00 (specific times may vary depending on the season; it is recommended to check the official website or Trip.com in advance). It is highly recommended to book tickets in advance on Trip.com. Not only can you enjoy discounts, but you can also avoid queuing to buy tickets on-site, especially during peak tourist seasons. Booking in advance will make your trip smoother. 🎯 Tour Route - Jellyfish Gallery: Upon entering the aquarium, you'll first arrive at the dreamy Jellyfish Gallery. This place is like a fantastical blue world, where jellyfish of various shapes and colors dance under the lights, like mysterious creatures from outer space. Their rhythmic pulsations create mesmerizing light and shadow effects, perfect for taking photos. Every shot will have a dreamy, blockbuster feel. - Underwater Tunnel: This is the highlight of the aquarium. Stroll through the underwater tunnel, with blue water above and all around you. Huge sea turtles, sharks, rays, and other marine creatures swim around you, making you feel like you're in an underwater world. You can stay here a bit longer, find a good spot, and quietly admire the graceful movements of these marine creatures, experiencing the depth and mystery of the ocean. - Polar World: Next, head to Polar World, home to adorable penguins and beluga whales. The penguins waddle around, incredibly cute, sometimes diving quickly into the water, sometimes coming ashore to preen their feathers. The beluga whales will occasionally swim up to the glass, looking at visitors with their intelligent eyes, as if greeting everyone. They might even give you an impromptu water-spouting performance. - Touch Pool: If you want to get closer to marine life, don't miss the Touch Pool. Here, you can carefully touch starfish, sea urchins, and other marine creatures, feel their unique textures, and learn about their habits. Staff will also be on hand to provide patient explanations, making it a fun and educational experience. 📸 Photo Spots - In addition to the aforementioned Jellyfish Gallery and Underwater Tunnel, there is a giant marine life sculpture at the entrance of the aquarium, a popular photo spot. Many visitors take photos here to commemorate their visit. - In front of the penguin exhibit, there's a simulated polar scene with glaciers and snow-capped mountains in the background. Taking photos with the penguins here creates a special atmosphere, as if you're in the distant Antarctic. 📌 Tips: Jeju Aqua Planet upholds the philosophy of no animal performances and is committed to providing a natural and comfortable living environment for marine life. Therefore, the performance hall features fun clown shows with lots of interaction, which are also worth watching! During your visit, enjoy this unique kind of fun with a relaxed attitude. At Jeju Aqua Planet, you can spend a time filled with surprises and joy. Whether you're a child or an adult, you can create wonderful memories here. Plan your visit now and embark on a fantastic ocean journey!
