Families in Northern Luzon have a new destination to explore as the first-ever Aquarium and Ocean Park in the region officially opens to the public in Candon City, Ilocos Sur.

The attraction features a wide variety of marine life, including blue-spotted stingrays, different fish species, vibrant corals, and more. The park is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Admission is free for children under 2 feet tall.

Children aged 12 and below are charged P100, while guests aged 13 and above pay P200. Senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs) are given a discounted rate of P150.

The city government hopes the new marine attraction will help boost local tourism while offering fun and learning experiences for visitors of all ages.
