Hospitality, travel and tourism marketing: SEA Aquarium Sentosa, Singapore.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Singapore's SEA Aquarium is the largest aquarium in the world. However, now the title is overtaken by ChimeLong Ocean Kingdom in Hengqin, China. Located at the Marine Life Park at Resorts World Sentosa, Singapore, it contains a total about 45,000,000 liters of water and is home to more than 100,000 marine animals of over 800 species. SEA Aquarium Sentosa compromises ten different zones with 49 habitats, from Southeast Asia to the Arabian Gulf and the Open Ocean. SEA Aquarium Senior Curator Grant Willis stated in a news release that SEA Aquarium not only offers a stunning display of habitats, but also education and conservation programs in which families and guests can participate. (RWS Sentosa Press Release 2012) The Marine Life Park is one of the two mega attractions in Resort World Sentosa (RWS) Singapore, which compromises the S.E.A Aquarium and the Adventure Cove Waterpark. RWS is located on Sentosa Island, off the southern coast of Singapore. It is only 10 minutes away from Singapore's Central Business District, and is easily accessible via busses, MRT rail system, taxis and cars. RWS is wholly owned by Singapore Genting Group. It was named as the Best Integrated Resort in 2011, 2012 and 2013 at the TTG Travel Awards, which recognizes Asia Pacific's best travel industry.
