This place has a lot of cute and unusual marine and land creatures. If you haven't seen the penguin parade, you must watch it once. It's very cute. In addition, there are several marine creatures that can be touched by hand, which is a rare and interesting experience. The designs of the aquarium and the ocean theater are very careful. Although the park is not large, it is more exciting and richer than expected. If you play and watch all the contents once, I think it will take at least three hours. In addition, there are not many tourists in this place in winter, so you can enjoy it leisurely.
Nice marine park to spend time for half a day. Penguin walk was cute while sardine performance was amazing. Dolphin show and seal meal time was great too. It was an educational place, only thing we couldn’t understand the commentary in Japanese. We enjoyed ourselves nevertheless.
Convenient without queuing. I booked 1 day b4 and just show the phone apps to the ticket staff. A small park with different show timing. Penguin Parade is the highlight show but it is a short distance walk compared to Asahiyama Zoo. The restaurant serve a big portion pork cutlet tomatoes sauce rice. The touch pool is especially interesting for the kid.
It's a good place to see a lovely sea animal. You can see Penguin Parade, show of Seal and Dolphin. A Milky way pool, show of Sardline make us happy. Don't forget to visit the center aqurium, there are may interesting see life.
It is very convenient to order online one day in advance. You can use it the next day and exchange it at the counter. The day of the tour was Sunday, but there were not too many tourists. Although the museum is not big, the most attractive thing is the penguin parade. In addition, when watching the dolphin show, don't sit in the first two rows, because it will deliberately splash water and wet the tourists, which is very funny. We had a meal at the restaurant for 1,000 yen. The price of the restaurant I chose that day was reasonable and the portions were quite large. Remember to eat before 3 pm.
The Marine Park is only a 5-minute walk from JR Noboribetsu Station. Tickets can be used immediately after purchase, and there are also 1,000 yen park vouchers, which are convenient and great value. There are penguin parades and dolphin shows at noon on weekends. You can have a meal after watching them. The food in the restaurant is also delicious.
All the timed shows were fantastic. The penguin parade were cute. Good use of space for a small aquarium.
The park is divided into several areas based on animals. According to the designated performance time, you can see all the animals in half a day. Although it feels that they are well taken care of, in fact, Japanese zoos or aquariums are on the small side...
