Dear AllWe had recently experienced a sleepover @ the Underwater World at Sentosa. We felt like VIPs! It started at 6pm on Sun and ended at 12 noon the next day.
As Underwater World closed to the public in the night, we had the entire place to ourselves after that! We had a brief presentation of marine life, followed by a quick tour of the place before we were left to explore the aquariums on our own.
A surprise was a free show of "Song of the Sea" laser show was given to us...the 8pm slot. Since we had not seen it since the old musical fountain show site was demolished, we enjoyed ourselves. However, I personally felt the previous free show was better with nicer water plays and laser effects compared to the current one. The girls love it however.
Dinner, supper and breakfast the next day were provided. As this was a community centre based program and we really paid nominal fees, you can't expect the food to be fantastic. However, we loved the VIP treatments...like having a sentosa bus taking us to the Song of the Sea show and back to Underwater World, being ushered for a "Trainer of the Dolphins" talk especially arranged for us, having a private photo session with the sea lion (see pictures above) and a Pink Dolphin show!
We also have lots of chance to touch the fish, sharks, starfish, puffer fish and the very very cute cow-sting rays and their huge counterpart, the gigantic spotted sting rays! The cow sting ray was particularly cute and cheeky! It always comes to us as we wait for it, so that we could pat it and rub it all over it's head like a puppy!! It would sometimes splash us with water as it waves it's body over the waters edge at the edge of the tank, just to splash us!!
All in, it was an lovely and enjoyable experience for us all!
Love Theresa
