Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium Admission

The Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium has two buildings, North and South, holding about 14,000 tons of water across its tanks and pools. You can see popular animals such as orcas, bottlenose dolphins, belugas and Antarctic penguins in one place. Enter on your booked date with your mobile voucher and explore both buildings at your own pace.

Orcas, dolphins and belugas
in the North Building

The North Building introduces marine mammals such as whales and dolphins under the theme "A 3.5-billion-year journey: animals that returned to the sea". Dolphin performances are held in the large main pool, and underwater viewing windows let you watch orcas and dolphins up close. The beluga pool and sea turtle exhibit are also here.

From the seas of Japan to Antarctica
five oceans in the South Building

The South Building, themed "Journey to Antarctica", takes you through five zones: the seas of Japan, the Deep Sea Gallery, the equatorial seas, Australian waters and the Antarctic seas. In the Antarctic zone, penguins walk and swim in a habitat recreated with artificial snowfall and climate control.

Harbor views on
Garden Pier

The South Building route follows the course taken by the Antarctic research vessel Fuji, now moored at Nagoya Port Garden Pier. After your visit, enjoy the harbor-side outdoor area with views of Nagoya Port Tower and the sea. It is easy to reach from central Nagoya via Nagoyako Station on the Meiko subway line.
