Album Description:
Hope you enjoy this album despite my difficulty taking photos because of flash restrictions & low light levels inside the Oceanarium. My highlight? The Living Ocean's 25-meter glass tunnel walk, of course!

Hi Maryann, I loved going through the park with you. It was amazing. And than thanks for including snapshots of what we would be looking at next. You did a wonderful job capturing the wonders of this park. Thank you for sharing this. Patti

Hi Mary Ann. What a lovely album...you really do justice to Manila Ocean park with these photos. I was there on a gray, rainy November day and there were few crowds. I loved the underwater tunnel and took many pics - but mine did not turn out nearly so nice as yours. You are also very diligent in capturing info about your subjects. Thanks for that. It does add a lot. If you ever visit Vancouver, we will tour you to the Aquarium here. It is excellent, with beautiful examples of our Pacific Northwwest marine life. I will post some pics I took last summer for you to see. Take care always. Steve

Went there last year, but I did not have a 'proper' camera yet. And people from Oceanis visited our office about 3 years ago to consult us re their concept when I was still working for the Marine Aquarium Council. I have a marine aquarium at home, and it is a lot of work. A big responsibility, taking care of my two three-year old fishes - am emperator and an ocellaris (nemo). Thanks for the pictures.

It was fun walking through the park following your shots. It must be nice living in a tropical area as shown by the fish in this oceanarium. The fish are real colorful and I think I have seen most of them just for the first time, through your album. Thanks for sharing this with us. It looks like another park I need to visit when I go to Manila. It is great that you get to enjoy MOP with your kids who are all smile!

The Manila Ocean Park (MOP) is the world’s first marine theme park to adopt a "fusion concept", housing an oceanarium, a mall, a boutique hotel and open marine habitats. It is a marine park that is among the most advanced ocean parks in Asia. MOP is 8,000 square meters and The Oceanarium features more than 20,000 marine inhabitants of approximately 300 species. And unlike other oceanariums in Asia, MOP gets marine species from the country’s own waters. On a daily basis, an appoximately 10,000 guests can be accommodated in the park. The Oceanarium features an assortment of colorful fishes and invertebrates indigenous to the Philippines and Southeast Asia contained in 12,000 cubic meters of seawater. The Oceanarium’s main attraction is a 25-meter long, 220 degree curved acrylic walkway tunnel. Visitors are able to explore the secrets of the ocean, and are surrounded by such underwater wonders without actually getting wet. MOP is owned by China Oceanis Philippines Inc., a subsidiary of China Oceanis Inc., a Singaporean-registered firm that has operated four oceanariums in China.
