Takeshima Aquarium, Public aquarium in Gamagori, Japan
The Takeshima Aquarium displays 500 marine species from Mikawa Bay across multiple exhibition spaces, including native fish and deep-sea organisms.
Established in 1956, the aquarium has maintained its position as the fourth smallest aquatic facility in Japan while housing an extensive collection.
Local fishermen contribute to the exhibits by providing specimens from their deep-sea catches, creating a connection between maritime traditions and education.
Located at 1-6 Takeshima-cho, the facility opens daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM with parking spaces available directly in front.
The aquarium features a Sowarin Pool where visitors can touch live specimens including giant isopods and horsehair crabs under staff supervision.
