All Reviews of Nagasaki Penguin Aquarium

At Nagasaki Penguin Aquarium, you can see lots of adorable penguins all at once. Its biggest feature is the unique "Penguin Beach," where you can watch penguins swimming freely in the natural coastal waters. The aquarium also offers plenty of interactive experiences, such as up-close feeding, touching, and outdoor penguin walks, making it a great place for the whole family to experience the charm of marine life!

This place is seriously so cute! The penguins inside were super lively. We happened to catch feeding time, and watching them scramble for fish was unbearably adorable. We also met one penguin we absolutely loved—it came right up to the window and kept interacting with us. So cute!
There’s also an outdoor penguin area with no glass separating you, so they feel even closer. A lot of the penguins were just standing around lazily without moving, totally in grandparent mode. The cutest part was seeing a super tiny baby penguin. Seriously adorable!
Besides the penguins, there are also quite a few marine animals inside, and the ocean view outside is expansive and beautiful. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time this visit. Otherwise, we could’ve easily spent over 3 hours taking our time exploring and taking photos!

Nagasaki Penguin Aquarium has about half of all penguin species in the world—almost 200 penguins inside! Definitely a must-visit spot.
