Tokyo Sea Life Park 3






After paying a nominal entrance fee of 700 yen, we proceeded to the dome. The dome is the entry way and leads to an escalator that started our decent into the sea.

We are greeted by a giant tank that housed a few hammerhead sharks.

The next exhibit was a huge two story tank with a school of aku (skipjack tuna or katsuo). The display surrounded us 120 degrees around the round chamber. It was as if we dived into the sea.
