After paying the entrance fee and entering the aquarium we turn to the right to see the wonders of the deep. Among others we find flashlight fish. Back at the main hall we the on the right are having tropical pacific preview which is followed by the Northern Pacific preview. At the large Honda Blue Cavern tank , shoving the Kelp forests fish, we follow the way on the right. Here the first tank is the Amber forest showing other creatures of the Kelp forest. The next tanks show the life of Southern California and the Baja California peninsula. Suddenly we are under the pool for Californian Sea Lions and Harbor seals. Going out side we first meet the rare Guam King Fisher. On the right we take the path to a touch tank for sharks and meet the strange horseshoe carb. A bit back we see a large tank for sharks among other with bonnethead shark. Next we meet the Southern Californian Steelhead. The last area is the home for lorikeets that can be fet. Now we are heading upstairs to meet the seals and sea lions again, as well as Magellanic Penguins. Going inside again we first see the Northern Pacific Gallery with puffins and the funny sea otters.
