we had a fantastic day at the Antalya Tunnel Aquarium.
The tunnel is amazing!!!
We did not go to Snow World, but you certainly may.
The variety of fish is astounding, and everything is so well cared for.
We were here with our friends and elderly children. 9 and 12 y.o. It s a good escape from the hotel routine in Antalya, not far from Alanya region about couple hours of drive. Interesting species and design.
The Antalya aquarium is a must to visit from Alanya. It has one of the longest aquarium tunnels with many sea species to sea and learn about. It is worthwhile visiting.
