Aquas Penguin Kids Experience

Shimane Aquarium Aquas is the largest-class aquarium in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions, showcasing creatures from the Sea of Japan. The main highlight is the 'happiness bubble ring' created by beluga whales—their underwater performance of blowing ring-shaped bubbles captivates children. The behind-the-scenes tour offers a look at areas of the aquarium not usually visible to the public, and abundant educational programs teach visitors about marine life breeding and care. It's recommended as a family trip destination when combined with visits to Iwami Ginzan and Onsenzu Onsen.
