5. Deep Boo Sea at S.E.A. Aquarium

If you’re looking for a chill Halloween with little spooks and frights, you could consider spending your Halloween at the S.E.A. Aquarium where the habitats of the marine animals would be transformed into spooky Undersea Neighbourhoods alongside Halloween decorations.

Instead of frightful haunted houses, you will experience a fun-filled Trick-or-Treat trail around the aquarium that will have you uncovering secrets of the neighbourhoods, and learn quirky facts about the marine animals residing in the aquarium. The family-friendly experience also tests your newfound knowledge via a complimentary Scare-arium Fun Sheet, where you get to collect sweets (and bite-sized facts) from candy ambassadors.

Plus, you’ll also get to see divers in skeleton costumes as they make their appearance during feeding times, and take photos with the S.E.A. Aquarium’s manta ray mascots in their Halloween costumes during their Meet-and-Greet sessions.

• Admission Fee (Per Person): From $51 for Adults and $41 for Children

Deep Boo Sea at S.E.A. Aquarium runs on select dates from now to 8 November 2022. For more information or to purchase your tickets, click here.
