No flash. Photography in the aquarium is permitted; however, keep an eye out for the no flash photography signs and be sure to adjust your camera settings accordingly, as sudden flashes can harm the animals
Get with the program. A heap of free exhibitions and shows run every day at the aquarium. Ask a staff member for the schedule so you don't miss out on any presentations. Dinnertime for the sharks and stingrays is definitely never dull.

Deep in the heart of the 12,000-mile Dubai Mall lies the world's most spectacular underwater enclosure to date. Home to 33,000 marine animals from more than 200 species, the Dubai Aquarium is easily one of the city's biggest draws, and with such a diverse program and an impressive, Instagram-worthy design, it's easy to see why. Shark cage and scuba diving satisfy even the most adventurous of spirits, while those looking to dip their toes in the underwater world will find snorkeling the perfect experience.
The Dubai Aquarium remains busy year-round, but in the early mornings, visitors often find they have the aquarium virtually to themselves. Beat the crowds and head to the aquarium on Friday morning from 8 to 10 am for the most serene of underwater experiences.
Smack bang in the middle of the Dubai Mall, most tourists find their way to the aquarium quite easily. If you’re travelling by metro, alight at the nearby Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall metro station. Plenty of taxi ranks and parking facilities at the nearby Dubai Mall make travelling by car a viable option too.
It takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to tour the Dubai Aquarium.
Dubai Aquarium is home to several aquatic animals whereas Underwater Zoo takes tourists through a contrast of aquatic and rainforest animals such as penguins, crabs, sea horses, and UAE’s nocturnal creatures. Underwater Zoo is located right above the Dubai Aquarium.
