Moon Jellies (Aurelia ourita) Dancing Sea Fairies!

March 30, 2013 ~ The Jellies Dancing Sea Fairies is a small Manila Ocean Park attraction.  The jellyfish’s are inside the light reflected aquarium so they look like that they change in color along with the lights. Because the jellyfish are illumine-scent combining them with lights are actually eye pleasing. The lights changes from blue, green, orange, white, cyan, red, purple, violet and pink.

Mirrors are cleverly used to give the illusion of space. And with classical music playing on a loop, the jellyfish looked like they were indeed gracefully swaying. The changing colors of the neon lights illuminating the tanks made the display even more magical. I could gaze at these sea creatures floating about inside their tanks for a long time. In the beach, these jellyfish are poisonous and could sting unsuspecting swimmers. Here, they are dreamy dancing sea fairies.

There is a mini bar at the center of the jellies dancing sea fairies attraction. Flash photography is not allowed so it is really hard to take a decent photo. All in all, we had fun in a short jellies dancing fairies.

The second room is composed of tubes of jellyfish.
It looks like this is a huge room of jelly fish as advertised, but there are only around 7-10 tubes.


The entrance fee is Php150 and you can finish the tour within 15-30 minutes.
