Shin-Sapporo Sunpiazza Aquarium
A vibrant underwater world home to 10,000 aquatic creatures
Directly connected to Shin-Sapporo Station, Sunpiazza Aquarium is home to about 200 species and 10,000 aquatic inhabitants. Visitors can enjoy an underwater world year-round, with shopping and dining just steps away.
The aquarium features a diverse collection of marine and freshwater life, including spotted seals, playful otters, and colorful fish. A highlight is the large circular tank, where about 1,500 fish swim continuously, creating an immersive underwater experience.
Visitors can also discover species native to Hokkaido’s northern waters, such as the clione (sea angel) and the distinctive wolffish, offering insight into the region’s unique marine environment.
Interactive exhibits add to the experience. At the touch pool, guests can feel the textures of starfish and crabs, while feeding demonstrations provide opportunities to observe animal behavior and learn from aquarium staff.
As a fully indoor attraction, the aquarium can be enjoyed comfortably in any season. Conveniently located next to shopping and dining facilities, it is a popular stop for families, couples, and visitors exploring Sapporo.
