Grand Aquarium Hurghada

They say that it is 7th aquarium in the world… In the past I admired most the one in Osaka, then those in Florida and California so maybe it is worth to see the one in Hurghada? It is located only 1,5 kms from my Mercure Hotel – 25 min walk… The institution was empty… The clerk in the ticket window asked for hefty 32 USD entry fee. More than in America! OK, I paid and passed through the security screening. The trail marked by arrows lead me through the artificial jungle with little waterfall, snakes and turtles the cages were alive. I didn’t expected that this is zoo + aquarium with african ostriches, pelicans an flamingos. Of course the main attractions are the glass tunnels under big tanks (2) where you can see stingrays turtles and sharks sailing over you.
Worth to see but overpriced!
