Watching them swim is fascinating, especially to a children's eye. Curiosity, biodiversity and a message for responsibility to take care of our natural resources.

In the exit gate, There is an important reminder along with a picture on what happens if we pollute our water.

Aww ang ganda! Such a shame ang hirap mag travel. Daming restrictions. Hehe.

Pero mag oopen na daw ang Seaworld dito sa Yas next year so sana makadalaw kami dun.

Hello Miss @arrliinn. Thank you. Kaya nga, salamat nga at medyo lumuwag na ngayon. Sa amin hindi pa open ang public park. Seaworld, sana makapasyal din kami jan.

Best regards po sainyong lahat. Xx

Dito kelangan ng green pass (QR code sa Al Hosn app) to enter public premises. Kaya stay at home na lang 😅
