Experience Unique Interactions with Sea Creatures at Touch Uocchi Aquarium

Touch Uocchi Aquarium: A New Coastal Experience in Yokosuka


The aquatic world is about to become more accessible and engaging than ever! On April 25, 2025, the Touch Uocchi Aquarium will officially open its doors at Soleil Hill in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture. This interactive aquarium, operated by Hibiya Kadan under the Area Management Cooperation in Yokosuka, offers an exciting opportunity to engage with a diverse range of 12 aquatic species, including sturgeons and seahorses.

A Unique Attraction for All Ages


Visitors can look forward to getting up close and personal with marine life in a way that has never been done before. The aquarium promotes a “see, touch, and enjoy” philosophy, making it ideal for families, couples, and friends. From touching a baby sturgeon, which measures around 20cm and has no painful teeth, to interacting with the enchanting seahorse, believed to bring luck and happiness, there's something for everyone.

Additionally, guests can witness the fascinating horseshoe crab, a living fossil that has existed for 200 million years, and see the mudskipper—an extraordinary fish that can travel on land. Other aquatic highlights include piranhas, known for their ferocious feeding habits, and the ancient Polypterus fish, offering feeding experiences as well.

To enhance the interactive atmosphere, the aquarium will also feature a goldfish scooping activity, reminiscent of traditional Japanese festivals. This engaging setup creates an exhilarating environment for visitors to enjoy the aquatic world.
