Sharjah Aquarium & Maritime Museum

Sharjah Aquarium & Maritime Museum showcases 250 species of Gulf and Indian Ocean marine life across 20 tanks, each replicating natural ecosystems with 1.5 million liters of water. The adjacent Maritime Museum authenticates UAE heritage with equipment from actual working pearl-diving and dhow-building boats, unlike typical replicas used elsewhere. A standout data point: pearl-diving gear conserved here includes a 19th-century diving stone weighing 12 kilograms, a rarity in Gulf museums.
