Mall of Dilmunia, a family-centered mall concept developed in Bahrain, has opened the first and largest cylindrical aquarium in a mall in the Middle East (ME) at an inaugural ceremony attended by major stakeholders, project partners and senior government officials.
The aquarium is a major attraction at the mall, occupying all four levels and providing visitors with an informative and stunning experience. It is a one-of-a-kind experience that combines the beauty of the sea and education in one spectacular setting.
The cylindrical form allows visitors on all four floors to conveniently view the wonderful creatures. According to reports, the aquarium contains around 700,000 liters of seawater, a depth of 17 meters and a circumference of 7 meters. Visitors can interact with more than 2,700 fish from over 85 species including stingrays, clownfish, angelfish, sharks, and more.

Bahrain Aquarium is an outstanding addition to Mall of Dilmunia, combining the mall’s strategic location, breathtaking views, various amenities, and entertainment venues, bolstering the mall’s position as one of the most ambitious and forward-thinking destinations in the Kingdom, where a new era of unique indoor activities will soon take shape.
