At SEA LIFE Istanbul, you may see over 15,000 sea creatures together on display in areas with special themes. Inside this spacious ocean tank live many intriguing species, such as the horseshoe crabs whose species have a history of 570 million years, or the arapaima, which has been mythologized by the indigenous Amazonian people, because of its 1.5-meter-long tongue.
SEA LIFE Istanbul also includes the only Digital Aquarium in Europe where children can paint fishes and make them swim, rock ponds where children can play with some of the sea creatures accompanied by experts, a Birthday Room exclusively designed for birthday parties and celebrations, the one and only private Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Center in Turkey that is certified by the Ministry, where injured sea turtles which have been found wounded in nature are brought in and treated.
