Photos of Manila Ocean Park
One of our readers, Patty, has visited Manila Ocean Park, the Philippines’ first oceanarium and has the pictures to prove it! Yep, you can take photos in the oceanarium, but without using flash (it scares the fish!).
Patty has graciously allowed us to share some of the photos with you.
Near the end of your visit, you can rest your feet in this pool of fish! But be careful, Patty says that the fish bite. :p
These are just some of the sights and experiences waiting for you at the Manila Ocean Park. Looks like a lot of fun, eh?

Eep! I don’t know how restful a pool of little nibblers can be. lol
Great pics! That prickly-looking octopus (I’m assuming that’s what it is) is so creepy looking!
Nice, clear shots, thanks for sharing! the last pic are those of “doctor fishes” at the fish spa. they feed on dead-skin off visitors’ feet and the experience, as my nieces said, was “nakakakiliti” (it tickles). btw, the “prickly-looking octopus” is actually a giant Japanese crab! here’s some pics at the “Baruha” or Coral Reef area – http://auroralh.multiply.com/photos/album/14/Creatures_and_Corals_at_the_Oceanarium

wow!we are really blessed with great wonders of the world!!hope to see manila ocean park when i got back..thanks for the pictures you posted!!its mersmerizing..
I have a question i am going to the philippines next may and i heard there is tons of wemon selling themselves. I really dont want my vacation to be ruined by a bunch of wemon propositioning my husband for sex. Is this true? Can anyone respond?
That will be fun, on my visit next month to Philippines I will definitely go to that ocean park
Hi NB4372,
I’m sorry that someone has told you that. It’s really not true at all. There are many places in the Philippines where you can enjoy your vacation hassle-free. Of course, there are questionable places too, just like any other country. If you avoid those districts, you should be fine.
thanks for you my mind is a little bit more at ease now. i will start my research for places to visit there …. does anyone have any must see spots??? Im definatly going to check out the skin eating fish lol
I am going for a vacation to see my family back
home.My fiancee is English and I would like him to see one of our beautiful parks.I am looking forward to have a “fish spa” which I think is a good therapy.I am sure that my fiancee,myself and my family will enjoy our days out to Manila parks.
hi the park looks great. we’re heading to manila in october for 3 weeks and we are attending a wedding reception at the ocean park so now we can’t wait to get ther and see it !!
to NB4372 : this will be our 3rd visit to the philippines and we’ve never had a problem of any kind. my husband went for a boys night out the first time we were there and he said there were a lot of women trying to get them to buy drinks in the pubs but apart form that we’ve not had a problem.
everyone has always been extremely nice and helpful and if you can you have to visit BORACAY …..a fantastic tropical island …its magical …and again we’re going there for our 3rd time when we’re over in october
have a nice trip !!

hiyow,its nice der.we had our field trip there and we really enjoyed it.=).the entrance fee was worth it.ü.a must see place.the 25-meter long walk wherein you can see fisshes swim over you.it’s fascinating.i.♥.it.ü.oh,i haven’t tried the doctor fish,i was kinda bankrupt when we went there,but some of my bm8s did.they said it was fun.ü.
I’m working here abroad and I heard a lot about this park.. now my vacation is coming very near, Manala Ocean Park is on the top of my itenerary…tnx for some info.!
If I bring a baby, will it have an entrance fee also?
Erika, I really am not sure about that. We’ll have to wait for someone else who knows to comment. Anyone?
