Oita Marine Palace Aquarium (Umitamago)
Performance by marine animals
The popular attraction at Marine Palace Aquarium is an impressive performance by marine animals. Especially in their popular Walrus Show, a perfect pair of trainer and walrus perform a laugh-inducing comedy act. After the show, there is a window in which the audience can touch the walrus’ body.
A Large Touch Pool
In front of the aquarium building expands a large fish tank called “a touch pool” as if it is merging into the beautiful water of Beppu Bay. In this tank, a variety of fish natural to the local sea of Oita are swimming about, allowing visitors to see the fish up close, even touch some and examine the smell and temperature.
