Waikiki Aquarium
I went to Waikiki Aquarium. I go running to Waikiki every weekend and I always do not have money during running but I had twenty dollars by chance on that day. Therefore I did not expect to go there even though I decided to enter the Waikiki Aquarium suddenly. The approach there is fairly easy. It is almost at the edge of the east of Waikiki. Even the person who doesn't know how to get there will be able to find it if advancing toward the direction of Diamond Head along the Waikiki beach, and there are some big monuments in front of the aquarium so everyone can find it easily. It will not take longer than 20 minutes walking from the center of Waikiki. The charge is not high at all either. It is possible to enter for ten dollars or less. It had a calm and clean atmosphere when entering inside. A lot and tourists and local families were there. The service of the aquarium was quite good. When entering, the hand-held narrated guide machine was passed out, and the machine explained about the fish of each water tank. The machines were passed out for each person so I could watch many fish at my own pace and the machine translated in many languages. Therefore I could hear the explanations in my native language but you can just look around instead and read the signs on each tank. The aquarium was very small but worthwhile to see little fish up close. They also have monk seals, jelly fish and small sharks. Among them all there were especially a lot of water tanks with jelly fish in them. Those Jelly fish tanks were lit up by blue light so they shone beautifully. It did not take one hour to see everything in the aquarium. If you need a break from the sun and sand, visit the aquarium
