    Absolutely amazing place. It's done extremely nicely. Unbelievable to see the variety of fish. Beautifully made and so so clean. The staff is also very friendly. Highly recommend for kids to experience this. We have seen many aquariums in various countries but this definitely tops the list.

    VGP Marine Kingdom is a well-maintained place
    VGP Marine Kingdom is a well-maintained place. My son is a big fan of Aquaman and he wanted to explore this marine kingdom finally he was very happy we have fulfilled to of his long wishes on a single day. Marine Kingdom has impressive variety of species, showcasing an extensive collection of colorful fishes that are truly mesmerizing. One of the standout features is the tunnel, providing an immersive and breathtaking view of marine life.

    Great place to visit with kids
    A very good place for kids to enjoy. Lots of varieties of fishes available. It is not a traditional aquarium with the same type of tanks. With a variety of tanks, it provides a good variation and kids are engaged throughout. I visited this place after 4 years and it is still good and well maintained. *Check their website FAQ for feeding times, that is a good one to watch. *Mermaid show is conducted during vacation time. Do check their website for timing before booking. Mermaid show - Not very great. But worth a watch once. Young kids enjoy it the most. Food - After we come out of marine kingdom, there's a gift shop and a food court. It's good. We can get pizza, pasta ,burger, icecream and even biryani there.

    Best Place for Underwater Experience in Chennai
    One of the most exciting places to visit with kids . The best place in Chennai especially during the summer for kids and parents too t witness spectacular underwater creatures fish and to get hand on touch and feel with star fish. Highlight included the Mermaid show although we can watch it any number of times may be the show can extend for a few more minutes rather than the 1 time entry of the mermaid. Great Rainforest areas with the artificial climbers and the underwater experience is the best along with the colorful fauna.would definitely visit again in a more relaxed time and spend more time as we were on a combo offer which was great and budget friendly.

    Wonderful Marine kingdom experiences from VGP Universal Kingdom
    Amazing place for kids to enjoy and learn about the marine world. Feeding show was awesome. Seeing sharks and Octopus in such a distance is amazing. Kids can thoroughly enjoy 1 hour looking at all those sea water fishes. One should visit this to know the marine world and the variety of fishes.

We were a group of 6 including kids ( 4 and 2) and visited the VGP marine kingdom in September 2021 and we spent a good 2.5 hours there. The place had all the covid protocols in place and temperature checks were done.
We enjoyed the walk-through tunnel and looking at the many sharks and the touch pool where we could touch starfishes. The VR show was good ( Do not miss that ). They do the feeding at specific times and we wanted to view that - but we missed it. You can easily lose track of time watching other things so plan accordingly if you want to watch the feeding. The whole place was divided into zones based on habitats. Appreciate the fact that it had elevators and escalators in all the places making it elderly friendly. There is a cafe and a sovienur shop at the end . Our kids enjoyed identifying the octupus, star fish and lot of rays and sharks and the meerkats

They have very good colorful collection of sea species. It may not be exciting for somebody who has already been to big aquarium outside India. But it will be definitely a visual treat for those who are in India and for kids. Highlight is that you can touch the star fish for free and they have facility for tank diving at the cost of Rs.3000 per head where u can swim with few medium sized sharks. Also they have a decent cafeteria.

Amazing experience. My daughter loved watching the fish. The entry ticket was priced very high more variety of species can really add on to the experience. They wanted to create the same kind of experience which is in Singapore and Malaysia. But can be little better. Over all my daughter enjoyed.

Awesome place to visit. Entered the marine world with no expectations, exited with so much nice memories. You get to forget rest of the world when you are here. Lots of fish varieties. Most of which are a surprise to watch. You can spend atleast 3 hrs here peacefully. They have a good court and a popcorn stall too. Those who want to spend half a day outside city life, pls try visiting here once.

The day we visited, we had a long queue in all counters for the tickets. But I booked online in a minute and entered the premises without wasting time. Sometimes they give offer while we book online too.

Take kids and have fun.

One of the must visit places in Chennai.Good place to go along with friends and family.Full place is air conditioned. There was a special attraction of Mermaid show which is also very good. The verity of fishes and colorful aquatic species. A must try for kids as they love to enjoy the place. No time restriction, you can enjoy as much as time you want.Before going check the Mermaid show time , so that you shouldn't miss the special attraction.
The underwater tunnel experience is really good.They alsohave a specific feeding time for fishes, which we missed that.Check the timing before you go.

The walk-in aquarium is India's largest and undoubtedly the coolest. The 70-meter underwater tunnel was simply breathtaking, and I was able to witness exotic species from 5 different aquatic zones up close. The live feeding shows were not only entertaining but also educational. The touch pool exhibits were a definite highlight and allowed me to interact with the marine life in a fun and interactive way. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and made my visit all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend VGP Marine Kingdom to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable experience!

Opens at 9AM and hence better to start early and finish by 11AM and then go to Universal kingdom. They do have food court. Good for kids and all age. Maintenance is good , best time to visit weekdays.. Peaceful and spend more time with individual tanks.

The place is well maintained. There is small underwater tunnel where we get a good view of deep water fishes. The ticket cost is 650 for adults. Car parking charges us ₹50. It will be a good experience for kids. It will take around 2 hours to completely watch the place.

Family & children surely enjoy.. it would be treat to watch feeding food and scuba driving.

I have visited VGP Marine Kingdom last week. It's located on main ECR road, so it was quite easy to reach. It's a great place to spend time especially for kids. They have a huge collection ( over 5000) of spices of fishes. The fishes and aquatic animals, well organized and maintained by them. There is a mega transparent under water tunnel. Restaurants is available within a aquarium building. Overall it was a nice experience.
