Located directly along the Kagoshima Port waterfront, Kagoshima Aquarium (also known as Io World) invites visitors to explore seven floors of vibrant aquatic exhibits. The facility focuses heavily on local biodiversity, highlighting the rich marine life influenced by the warm Kuroshio Current and the volcanic underwater geography of Kagoshima Bay. Guests can discover an impressive array of sea creatures, from majestic ray species and colorful reef fish to unique deep-sea fauna native to the region's southern island chains. It makes for an enriching and family-friendly stop right before or after catching a ferry across the bay.
