The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium (Apricot Cafe/Flickr) The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium (Apricot Cafe/Flickr) This aquarium at the Ocean Expo Park opened in 2002 and features a famous exhibit called the Kuroshio Sea. This tank contains almost 2 million gallons of water and has a massive acrylic glass panel. The aquarium is well known for its whale sharks and manta rays. Only a few aquariums in the world offer visitors the chance to see whale sharks—large and majestic animals that require a great deal of space to thrive. 2. Dubai Mall Aquarium Dubai Mall Aquarium (Saad S Al-Resayes/Flickr) Dubai Mall Aquarium (Saad S Al-Resayes/Flickr) You didn’t think Dubai would sit this one out, did you? The Dubai Mall is already one of the largest shopping malls on the planet, but it is also home to one of the largest aquariums on earth. The aquarium contains a 2.64 million gallon tank with more than 33,000 specimens. The sharks and rays alone account for 400 of these. It now contains the world’s largest acrylic glass panel, bigger even than the one in Okinawa (which set records when it was first constructed). 1. Georgia Aquarium Georgia Aquarium (Jack Lin/Flickr) Georgia Aquarium (Jack Lin/Flickr) And the number one largest aquarium on the planet? The honor goes to the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. This aquarium opened up in 2005, thanks to a $250 million grant from Bernie Marcus, the co-founder of the Home Depot hardware store chain. The Georgia Aquarium is well known for a couple of things. One is the absolutely massive 6.3 million gallon tank containing the Ocean Voyager exhibit. The other is the aquarium’s whale shark population. The Georgia Aquarium is the only aquarium outside of Asia to serve as a home for whale sharks. That’s not necessarily a boon, however, since two of the sharks have died, and there are some concerns that the aquarium isn’t an appropriate home for them. If you have ever had the chance to visit one of these massive aquariums or any others which are of a similar caliber, you know what an amazing experience it can be. If you haven’t, though, and you have only visited a small local aquarium with a handful of specimens, you have really only gotten a taste of the fun and wonder that aquariums have to offer.
