The displays run from Fukushima's rivers and coast to the sea mammals and birds of northern waters. Tropical Asian wetlands, coral reefs and the currents off Fukushima follow. On the second floor a sushi counter sits in front of the big tank. Outside stands a children's building, Aquamarine Egg, with an otter area and its own outdoor zones. Inside it a small room lets toddlers watch a tank while playing with soft toys and books.
| Stroller friendly | Yes | The whole site is barrier-free. B-type strollers (from about 2 months old) are lent free at the main gate ticket office — no reservations, ask staff on the day, numbers limited, and lending stops when the building is very busy. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diaper changing table | Yes | Changing tables in the baby care rooms (two in the 1F entrance hall room) and in several toilets: the 4F multi-purpose toilet by the northern seas exhibit, the 2F women's toilet, the 1F multi-purpose and women's toilets by the uminos shop, by the entrance to Aquamarine Egg, and the outdoor multi-purpose toilet. Nappies are sold in the shop. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
| Nursing space | Yes (3) | Three baby care rooms, all on the 1st floor: the entrance hall (two private nursing booths, two changing tables, a sink), the outdoor Aquamarine Egg room (booth and sink), and the Gorogoro Hiroba room (booth, changing table, sink). Hot water for formula at the 1F entrance; a microwave for baby food at Aquamarine Egg. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
| Family restroom | Yes | Multi-purpose toilets throughout, marked with the wheelchair symbol, on floors 1-3, at Aquamarine Egg, by the outdoor Omatsuri Plaza and in front of the main gate (outside the paid area). They have a child seat and a baby bed; some are fitted for ostomates. The outdoor toilet by Omatsuri Plaza has a changing bench 60cm wide, 150cm long, 50cm high. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
| Elevator | Yes | A lift links floors 1 to 4, with ramps on floors 4 and 2, so the building can be crossed by wheelchair. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
| Outside food allowed | Yes | You may bring a packed lunch and eat it on the 1F south terrace, in the outdoor plaza or at Jabujabu Meguri-no-umi. None of these are roofed, so they cannot be used in bad weather. Inside there is the Aquacross restaurant on 1F and the Shiome-no-umi sushi counter by the big tank on 2F. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
| Indoor / outdoor | Indoor & outdoor | Rainy days work, but the walkway from the entrance to the main building is often unroofed, so bring an umbrella. In rough weather the outdoor areas — Wakuwaku Hajimari-no-mori, Jabujabu Meguri-no-umi, Biobio Tsunagari-no-sato and the Aquamarine Egg animal area — may be closed. | Web-checked | checked Aug ’26 | aquamarine.or.jp |
