The National Aquarium Abu Dhabi Overview

Khor Al Maqta is already famous for landmarks like Sheikh Zayed Mosque. The area has also become home to luxury entertainment destinations. One of the most impressive projects here is the Al Qana Complex. Built at a cost of AED 850 million, its main attraction is the National Aquarium Abu Dhabi. This project reflects Abu Dhabi Vision 2030 to turn the city into a global tourism hub. Smart Dubai Tours highlights that the complex stretches along 2.4 kilometers of Al Maqta Canal and is a collaboration between Abu Dhabi Municipality and Al Barakah International Investments.

Visit Al Qana’s Showstopping Highlight

Al Qana covers more than 150,000 square meters and houses a range of world-class attractions. The star of the show is the National Aquarium Abu Dhabi. At 9,000 square meters, it is the largest aquarium in the Middle East. Visitors can explore a wide variety of exhibits sourced from around the world. Watch rays and sharks including eagle rays, hammerhead sharks, and zebra sharks. See rare creatures like the Black Sea Devil and the Super Snake.

Explore 10 Themed Zones

The aquarium features 10 themed zones showcasing over 300 species of marine life. Learn about the UAE’s natural treasures and the region’s pearl farming heritage. Visit Atlantic Cave, the Red Sea Wreck, and the Sub to see submarines and different marine creatures. Discover Bu Tinah Island, one of Abu Dhabi’s hidden gems. Other zones include the Ring of Fire, Ocean, and the Flooded Forest.
