Rayong Aquarium

Rayong Aquarium is a public facility featuring 43 tanks of varying sizes that showcase fish species and marine creatures from local waters. The facility also includes exhibitions on traditional fishing boats and sea shells.

The facility was established in 1986 by the Department of Fisheries and the Eastern Marine Fisheries Research Center to promote marine conservation. It was created as an educational institution to build understanding of ocean resources and their protection.

Traditional fishing boats on display reflect how local communities have long depended on the sea and its resources for their livelihoods. The attached shell museum illustrates this enduring connection between people and marine life.

Visitors should note that opening hours are shorter on weekdays than on weekends, which affects visit planning. It is advisable to check exact times and choose a day that fits your schedule.

A special feature is the underwater glass tunnel through which visitors can observe sharks and rays. The adjacent outdoor pond was specifically designed to replicate the natural habitat of these animals.
