With 25 lifesize whale models, interactive experiences and underwater footage you are in for a BIG and unique experience.

Walking through this wonder world with soothing whale sounds, ambient underwater lighting and beach-like floors truly makes you feel like you are deep under water exploring these gentle giants of the ocean.
