Pickup and arrival
Meeting point / entrance: The National Aquarium, Al Qana, Abu Dhabi.
Explore the National Aquarium’s ten thematic zones on a self-guided indoor visit at Al Qana. General admission focuses on the aquarium exhibits, without boat rides or behind-the-scenes upgrades. Gallery images are aquarium illustrations, not photographs of the attraction or its exact exhibits.
The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi is an indoor wildlife attraction that invites visitors to explore a sequence of ten thematic zones. It suits families, couples and visitors who enjoy taking time with animal displays rather than following a fixed guided schedule. Located at Al Qana, it can form the main attraction of an outing, with any dining or other activities in the area arranged separately.
Your Visit
Begin with admission and follow the aquarium route through the different themed areas. Pause at the exhibits that interest you, watch how the animals move and use the information provided to learn more about their habitats. Children can enjoy comparing the different forms, colours and behaviours they see along the way.
The general ticket is focused on the aquarium itself: a glass-bottom boat ride, behind-the-scenes visit or special animal encounter is not automatically included.
