Are you fascinated by the wonders of the underwater world? BXSea Bintaro, acclaimed as one of the largest aquariums around, is the new go-to spot for marine life enthusiasts. This family-friendly educational attraction is perfect for visitors of all ages.

 

BXSea first opened its doors to the public after a soft opening ceremony on December 15, 2023. Since then, the aquarium has been enriching its collection.

 

Right now, it's home to approximately 17,000 marine organisms, with ambitions to expand to 25,000 from 140 different species by the grand opening in March 2024.

 

Spanning an impressive 7,354 square meters, BXSea features about 54 distinct displays, including 44 freshwater and saltwater aquariums, plus 10 terrariums. This variety allows visitors to explore other artificial ecosystems, such as river environments and rainforests.

 

 

 

The centerpiece of BXSea is a magnificent 35-meter-long glass tunnel that offers an immersive underwater experience. This dome and tunnel, the largest in Southeast Asia, measure 2.4 meters wide and 2.8 meters tall, ensuring a comfortable and spacious journey for all.
