Xiamen Underwater Seaworld is segregated into zones. The penguins and fresh water fish can be found in one zone; here two species of penguins – Spheniscus humboldti and Sphenisus demersus can be observed. A dead sperm whale specimen is a popular attraction that is housed in the Sperm Whale Zone. Visitors can also view how the dead sperm whale specimen had been prepared, through videos and pictures, and even gather more general information on these majestic marine mammals. Get up close and personal with the playful dolphins in the Dolphin Zone as they frolic in an area with a resting pool, performing pool, watching pool and living quarters. Here, visitors can feed the dolphins and have their picture taken. Last, but not least, stop at the Ocean Zone where most of the creatures are either from the tropics or the sub tropics and range from large sharks, coral-reef fish, grouper fish and crab species. Feeding turtles and baby sharks is another encounter you will never forget at Xiamen Underwater Seaworld. The exhibit of the shoal of piranhas from South America completes the thrilling experience.
