Getting there You could take a cab, but a cheaper method is taking the North East Line to Harbourfront Station and then, depending upon your choice, go to the ground floor to take a RWS 8 bus (S$1) or walk on the boardwalk (free of cost in 2017) or go to the 3 rd floor to take a monorail and alight at the Waterfront station (S$4) At the aquarium Shark Seas Habitat: This curved enclosure made us feel like the sharks who lived there were swimming above us. It was home to over 100 sharks, including hammerhead sharks which had 360 O vision. Hard Coral & Soft Coral Habitat: Small but colourful fish lived in a dense jungle of corals and sea anemones.

Section 1 (Tram Stop 1-Tram Stop 2) Wetlands: The Wetlands enclosure was an exhibit which had scarlet ibises, spoonbills and other terrestrial birds whose natural habitat is a wetland. Royal Ramble: This enclosure gave us the chance to see crowned pigeons and green peafowls up-close without a cage or even a glass separating us from them. Hornbills and Toucans: The largest of its kind, this exhibit had a lot of hornbills and toucans including the African pied hornbill and the Toco toucan. Hornbill
