Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium

Located about 25 minutes by car from Sendai Station and just 5 minutes from the Sendai Port Interchange, Sendai Umino-Mori Aquarium offers one of Japan’s rare opportunities to dive into a massive tank that faithfully recreates the rich marine environment of the Sanriku coast.

You’ll encounter around 25,000 Japanese sardines swimming in dazzling schools, along with 50 species native to the Sanriku coast—totaling nearly 30,000 marine creatures in all.
