Phu Quoc Aquarium

Overview

Phu Quoc Aquarium (also called Sea Shell Aquarium) is inside VinWonders Phu Quoc at Bai Dai, Ganh Dau, in the far north of the island. Vinpearl describes it as one of the five largest aquariums in the world. Spread across 15,000 square metres and three floors, it holds around 300 species of marine life, including jellyfish, sharks and rays. Five themed zones cover everything from deep-sea creatures to Arctic residents. Daily shows include mermaid performances and shark-feeding demonstrations. Tickets are included with the VinWonders Phu Quoc entry price.

Get There

VinWonders is at Bai Dai in Ganh Dau, in the far north of Phu Quoc, about 20 km from Duong Dong town. Vinpearl Safari and Grand World are right next door, so most visitors combine them in one day. The Hon Thom cable car is at the opposite, southern end of the island, so don't plan both for the same day.

  • From Duong Dong / Phu Quoc town: Grab or taxi, about 30 minutes north
  • From the airport: About 45 minutes by taxi. The airport is south of Duong Dong, so you drive through town to get there
  • Parking: Large paid car park on site

Address: Group 5, Ganh Dau Commune, Phu Quoc
Open: VinWonders daily 9am–7:30pm; aquarium roughly 10am–6pm
Tickets: Included with VinWonders entry — 950,000 VND (adults 140 cm+), 710,000 VND (children 100–140 cm or guests over 60)

Other

Five zones

  • Midnight Drifters — jellyfish gallery with over 1,260 jellyfish in backlit cylindrical tanks
  • The Aquatic Treasure — tropical reef fish, coral species, and the main walk-through ocean tunnel with sharks and rays overhead
  • The Frozen Palace — penguin habitat housing Gentoo, African, Adelie, Humboldt, King and Rockhopper penguins in a climate-controlled environment
  • Sharklantis — dedicated shark zone with hammerhead, blacktip, and whitetip sharks; shark-feeding shows held daily
  • Realm of Giants — oversized freshwater and saltwater species including giant catfish and freshwater stingrays

Shows

  • Mermaid performances — costumed performers in the main tank alongside live fish; check the daily schedule at the entrance
  • Shark-feeding show — aquarists feed sharks through protected panels; visitors can photograph with the aquarists after the show

Tips

  • Go on a weekday morning — school groups and tour buses arrive from mid-morning onwards on weekends
  • No flash photography around the animals
  • Don't feed the animals without staff permission
  • Two dining options on site: Deep Sea Cafeteria (casual) and Seahorse Restaurant (sit-down)
  • The aquarium is fully air-conditioned — a good option during the hottest part of the day or in rain
  • Allow 1.5–2 hours; more if you want to catch both shows
