The jellyfish exhibit is one of the most calming areas in our facility. Designed for introspection and escape from the busy outside world, it invites visitors to sit and marvel at the hypnotic movement of these graceful creatures.
The unique tank design enhances the experience with special lighting effects in varying colors, emphasizing the ethereal movement of these ancient beings, as mysterious as they are beautiful.
Jellyfish are some of the planet's most ancient inhabitants, with their lineage tracing back an incredible 700 million years.
With no bones, brains, or eyes, jellyfish blend seamlessly into their environment. Composed of about 98% water, their tentacles are equipped with specialized stinging cells to capture prey.
