Walk Through a 100-Meter Glass Tunnel With Sharks Swimming Overhead

You skip the entry line and walk straight into a 100-meter glass tunnel where sharks, stingrays and tropical fish swim around you at eye level. The aquarium is divided into coral reef, open ocean and touch pool zones, with daily feeding shows. It's open 9am to 6pm daily, fully accessible, and works for all ages — book your skip-the-line ticket online to avoid the queue on arrival.

The Experience

The moment you step into the tunnel, the water rises around you — not literally, but the effect is the same. Fish move past at eye level, stingrays glide overhead, and the glass holds back the entire weight of the ocean while you stand dry on the floor. Underwater World Pattaya's 100-meter tunnel is the spine of the whole experience, and it's the reason most people come. You get a 180-degree view, which means the animals aren't just in front of you — they're above, beside, swimming in and out of your line of sight like you're standing in their world instead of them being trapped in yours.

The aquarium is split into zones, so you're not just seeing one tank repeated. There's a coral reef section where the colors are almost unreal — electric blues, neon yellows, fish so small they look like they were drawn by hand. Then the open ocean habitat, where the bigger animals live. The touch pool is separate, and that's where kids (and honestly, most adults) spend longer than expected, running their fingers over starfish and sea cucumbers. It's the kind of thing that sounds corny until you're actually doing it and your five-year-old is grinning like they've discovered something nobody else knows about. Daily feeding shows happen too, though times vary — worth asking when you arrive so you don't miss them.

The skip-the-line ticket means you don't stand in the entry queue, which on a hot Pattaya afternoon is genuinely worth it. The place opens at 9am and closes at 6pm, with last admission at 5:30pm, so if you're planning to go, morning is easier — fewer school groups, clearer water in the tanks, less crowding in the tunnel itself. It's wheelchair accessible throughout, and if you're traveling with a stroller or very small kids, that works fine too. Children under 90 centimeters get in free; those between 90 and 130 centimeters pay the child rate.
