The Sea Life Bangkok Ocean World aims to provide both entertainment and education to visitors. Through formal educational programs, the aquarium aims to promote an appreciation and understanding of the aquatic environment in line with the formal Thailand curriculum.[citation needed]

This venue practices dual pricing, where Thai nationals and expat citizens pay around half the price that foreigners do.[1]

Inside Ocean World edit

Animals that can be found at the aquarium include: Japanese spider crabs, giant pacific octopus, shark rays, african penguins, starfish, seahorses, frogs, and jellyfish.[citation needed]
