A visit to the Guam Aquarium Complex will take you on a spellbinding journey, fully submerged under 14 feet of water, inside a 7-foot-wide, 7-foot-tall, see-through acrylic tunnel. Along the way you will come nose to nose with sharks, rays, groupers, barracudas and other sea life, separated only by 3 inches of acrylic. You will experience vistas normally reserved for only the most accomplished diver, without ever getting wet and without experiencing diver’s bends. The tunnel dive will “float” you through various habitats as you find them near-coast and off-shore in the depths of the Pacific Ocean.”
Upon ascending up through the water via escalator onto the second floor, you find yourself in the magical surroundings of the quiet realm of a large jelly fish exhibit full of exquisite, colorful performers doing their dance suspended in water. From the jelly temple onto the large, scary-looking Moray Eels, co-existing with other colorful fish, including Napoleon Wrasse. This portion of the exhibit is also home to beautiful and exotic aquatic species such as: live coral, octopus, garden eels, porcupine, puffer fish, Crown of Thorns Sea Star and sea horses, just to mention a few.
Depending on your level of curiosity and time available an average visit can last from 45 minutes to a couple of hours.
