Largest Tunnel at Antalya Aquarium

One of Antalya Aquarium's most outstanding attractions is its tunnel aquarium, which is the world's largest. One of the reasons I went was because of the long tunnel. You may witness a lot of underwater creatures swimming around. The tunnel is 131 metres in length and 3 metres wide. This tunnel offers a 180-degree perspective of the undersea environment. Walking through, you will feel like you are drowned in the water. Surrounded by a vast selection of marine species, including majestic sharks, elegant rays, and colourful tropical fish.

  • Oceanride XD Cinema

These are an additional cost for each activity. I wasn't particularly interested in the other activities. We simply opted to visit the aquarium. This took us about an hour or two to explore whole aquarium. If you wish to acquire a printed version of your images, you can do so at an additional cost.
