Best Things to Do in Nagoya: Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium
Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium
As one of Japan’s largest aquariums, the Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium is a must-visit attraction in Nagoya. Spanning two main areas—the North and South Buildings—it offers an impressive scale and a rich variety of exhibits.
Key Highlights:
Thrilling Dolphin Performances: Enjoy dynamic dolphin jumps and training sessions in the massive main pool. Showcased alongside one of Japan’s largest outdoor video screens, the show delivers a truly immersive and high-impact experience.
North Building (Marine Life of the Cold Seas): Up-close encounters with majestic marine mammals, including killer whales (orcas), belugas, and dolphins, as well as penguins native to the cold northern and Antarctic waters.
South Building ("A Journey to the Antarctic"): Following the route of the historic Japanese Antarctic research vessel Fuji, this section takes you on a global underwater voyage—from the seas of Japan and the deep ocean to equatorial tropical waters and Australian marine life.
