Not everyone who shops will want to look at fish. But they will. The tank is at the centre of the mall. If the glass broke, they might all be swimming with them. The children love it and when shopping it is hard to walk past it. Inside the Dubai Mall is the biggest aquarium I have ever seen; it stretches up from the lower floor to the 2nd floor and you can dive in it or take glass vehicle visits to see the sharks. But, you can see a lot from the shops through the 60cm thick glass into the 10 million litre tank that has over 33,000 fishes and underwater creatures; 140 species with over 400 Sharks and Rays, including Sand Tiger Sharks, Giant Groupers, and a host of other marine species.
If when you have watched it you want to go in, it might be too late as there is a queue to dive in the water and booking in advance is advised. It sold 61,000 tickets in its first five days and some of the activities like diving with sharks need to be booked in advance. There are many packages for this once in a lifetime treat watched by other shoppers.

You may have seen cruise thriller author & movie maker Stuart St Paul – click here on a ship giving an after-dinner speech or a talk with a book signing. Crime novels are a whole new experience. You may not have been to the ports in the novels, you certainly won’t have been to the parts of the ship they use but they take you there. Stuart’s page is here. The cheapest way to buy his cruise thrillers is the KINDLE BOX SET, all six cruise thrillers for the price of two.
