Marine Life Park

The Marine Life Park is a part of Resorts World Sentosa, Sentosa, situated in southern Singapore. The 8 ha park is home to two primary attractions—the S.E.A. (Southeast Asia) Aquarium and Adventure Cove Waterpark. Upon its opening in 2012, the S.E.A. Aquarium had the distinction of being the world’s largest oceanarium and public aquarium, a title it held through 2014, until it was surpassed by Chimelong Ocean Kingdom.

S.E.A. Aquarium
At the time of its opening, the S.E.A. Aquarium was the world's largest, by total water volume (until overtaken by Chimelong Ocean Kingdom in Hengqin, China), containing nearly 45000000 L of water, and housing more than 100,000 individual marine, brackish, and freshwater animals belonging to over 800 species. The aquarium is divided into ten zones with 49 habitat exhibits. The centrepiece of the aquarium is the Open Ocean exhibit, which features more than 18000000 L and 50,000 schooling fish, as well as rays, sharks, and other marine creatures. Until the aforementioned opening of Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, the S.E.A. Aquarium had the world's largest underwater viewing panel, at 36 m wide and 8.3 m tall, built to give visitors the feeling of being on the ocean floor. There is also a conservation group called Guardians of the S.E.A.A., which supports research, education and public engagement efforts to protect the marine environment. S.E.A. Aquarium will be rebranded to Singapore Oceanarium in 2024 when expansions and construction have been completed.

Rides and attractions
Rides and attractions include:

Dolphin Island
Between 2008 and 2009, Marine Life Park purchased 27 dolphins from the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific to be part of its attraction. Two dolphins died in Langkawi, Malaysia where they were temporarily housed before being sent to the Philippines for training and housing while the marine park in Sentosa is being constructed. While in the Philippines, local animal rights groups and Earth Island Institute filed a civil rights suit, and the Quezon City court issued a 72-hour temporary environment protection order to block the re-export of the dolphins to Marine Life Park on 14 October 2012. RWS reiterated that the resort's acquisition of the 27 Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins adhered to regulations governed by the United Nations Environment Programme under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. Following another appeal, the block on the re-exportation of the dolphins was temporarily extended. Upon expiry of the blocking order, the dolphins were subsequently exported while the court appeal was ongoing. One of the dolphins, Wen Wen, died on the flight to Singapore, making it the third dolphin to die prior to the opening of the Dolphin Island within the park.

Transport
The park is accessible by MRT (via the Sentosa Express), bus, car and by foot.
