Phuket Aquarium

This aquarium is not very big, but still quite good. You can see many kind of fish. Kids like it. After the visit, you can even go down to have a sit on the sand and enjoy the view.

I personally prefer this to the one in Central Festival given its location to the sea rather than in a modern building.
It is not as large with fewer exhibits but still sufficient. Love the Giant Garoupas.
In fact the best part is to turn left after exiting to visit the hatcheries (plenty of bamboo sharks) and turtle rescue centre (a marine biology school is next to it).
Also good signs in and out depicting affects of plastics and pollution.

Pretty little aquarium, well-maintained. The outside area is an absolute mess, sea debris everywhere. And the location is.. well, the Thai do not seem to have any feel for an appropriate location for attractions.
But- really nice!

External area not maintained with trash everywhere. Nature trail doesn't offer much information. Hatchery houses grown fish without spaces to hide, extremely dirty.

Don't visit.

Adults should know better to take their children to such a horrible display of animals. The aquarium would do better to raise ticket prices and keep the animals appropriately. It seems the little knowledge that's shared with visitors is not actually put into action. The beach and nature trail are full of waste.

Both in Thai and English. It's ironic that the aquarium explains in detail what the consequences of plastic waste are in our oceans and then sells various merchandise made of plastics in their giftshop.
