Aquarium in Prachuab
Aquarium in Prachuab
Found this place around 10km south of Prachuab in a small district called Waghor. It seems that they're close to finishing the aquarium but havent got the admission system working yet so you can enter for free. Plenty of good sized aquariums inside with all manner of freshwater and marine fish, good info on ecosystems in the surrounding area also,
Was a little angered to see turtles in tanks that are obviously far too small for them but then Thais have never been the most conservation or environmentally minded people

Looks like these aquariums are popping up everywhere nowadays. In March I visited one in Suphanburi. Good thing thou, that had no douple pricing and the kids enjoyed it.
