The deep sea is a world beyond human reach, and many of the creatures that live there remain a mystery.
In the “Deep Sea Exploration Room,” we present the ongoing efforts of the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, including the collection, husbandry trials, and cutting-edge research on deep-sea life.
Alongside exhibits of deep-sea species still in the trial stage—rarely shown to the public—you can also learn about research voyages, collection methods, and the latest findings.
Through the process of exploring, keeping, and understanding these mysterious creatures, discover the depth of deep-sea research.
