We had an amazing time with AIREN as our instructor. She is truly the best! She was so patient and kind when teaching my children how to snorkel. While in the water, she kept a constant eye on them, offering help whenever needed and making sure they were safe. She also took incredible photos with her professional skills! My two children were so happy to see so many beautiful fish. This became a memory of a lifetime for us. Thank you so much, AIREN!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 2 and above β€” reviewers with toddlers and school-age children both rate it highly. The snorkelling add-on is most suited to children aged 6 and above with basic water confidence. Families visiting Aquaventure Water Park can combine both attractions in a single day for maximum value from the Atlantis complex.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Book snorkelling sessions in advance as instructor slots are sparse and fill on busy days
⏰Allow at least two hours inside the aquarium to cover all tunnel sections and interactive areas
🎟️Combine with an Aquaventure day pass to access both attractions without making separate trips
πŸš—Touch tank sessions run at scheduled times β€” check the daily programme board at the entrance

β€œLove, love, love this place! Amazing set up, quality aquarium displays with a vast array of sea creature all made up to feel like you are living in the lost world of Atlantis. Wonderful graphics and lighting accentuate the experience, giving a very unique, and lively atmosphere. This was the perfect place for us adults as well as our children ages 2 years and 9 years. There was even a live mermaid show that you cannot miss. We all had such a great time - highly recommend!”

β€œI’ve been to a lot of aquariums all around the world, but none have impressed me as much as The Lost World Aquarium! The theming around the aquarium is spectacular, and it really makes you feel like you’re in the lost city of Atlantis. It’s impressive, immersive, and offers some fantastic interactions with the sea life. It was busy when we visited, but it was easy to find quieter spaces. Overall, it was an educational and enjoyable visit, and I would highly recommend a stopping by if you’re planning on visiting The Palm - it’s fantastic!”

β€œThis is an absolutely beautiful place to visit. The aquarium is phenomenal,with tons of beautiful fish and marine creatures to see . It will take you a couple hours to walk through it all. Lots of food nearby also . The water park is really nice, lots of places to get under to hide from the Dubai heat . It’s worth going there especially for the price of it all . Hotel and lodging are there also . Super nice as most things are in Dubai”
