Run by the international SEA LIFE brand, this aquarium sits beneath the Haeundae beachfront on floors B1 to B3. Eight themed zones lead to an undersea tunnel, and a glass-bottom boat floats over the sharks. A 2014 renovation added areas such as a ray shore, a seahorse nursery and the Shark Walk, and the aquarium counts more than 15 million visitors since opening.
