More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step from Pattaya's humid street into a dim gallery where cool light pools on curved acrylic tunnels and reef fish glide above like questions being asked aloud. The aquarium funnels you from a sandy shore exhibit through tidepools of clownfish and anemones, then into a long, clear tunnel where rays and sharks pass inches overhead—saltwater life moving with an almost casual authority.
