The Sharjah Aquarium was opened by His Highness Dr. Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, during a ceremony on the morning of Friday 6th June 2008.
The aquarium offers the opportunity for visitors to experience and learn about the marine environment of the UAE through its displays of a wide variety of local fish species. Advanced technologies and cutting edge design allows visitors to wander happily through tunnels and over bridges to gain differing perspectives on the 250 species , some rare, some just colourful, living in this beautifully constructed habitat.
