LIVE UNDERWATER
Living underwater might
sound futuristic and utopian
to some, but the Ocean Suites at the
S.E.A. Aquarium are your ticket to
this fantasy. Each of the 11 suites is
a double-storeyed townhouse that
transcends land and sea. While the
upper level comes with an open living
area, outdoor patio, and jacuzzi, the
lower level oƒ ers an intimate window
to the Open Ocean Habitat in the
luxury of your room.

MEET A SHARK
OR FIVE
How does it feel to be
ambushed by the apex predators
of the sea? The Shark Encounter
lets you descend into a world that
is inhabited by 100 sharks from 12
species, all the while being safely
ensconced in a cylindrical acrylic
enclosure that oƒ ers a 360-degree
view of the marine hunters. The
30-minute experience will give you
the chills with hammerhead, silvertip,
and sandbar sharks encircling your
enclosure, probably as curious about
you as you are about them.

DINE WITH THE FISH
Indulge in a specially
curated menu showcasing
sustainably sourced seafood, as
graceful manta rays and fi erce sharks
swim by in front of your eyes. The
Ocean Restaurant is Singapore’s fi rst
aquarium dining experience, oƒ ering
a delightful side of the Open Ocean
Habitat views along with your meal.
