Gong SEA Fa Cai at SEA Aquarium

Media Invite

The Lunar New Year is coming to its tail end, and if you are looking at soaking yourself in more dong dong dong chiang mood, I strongly recommend visiting the SEA Aquarium this weekend! Brought my kids there last weekend to check out their CNY decorations, and I was pleasantly surprised at how festive the whole place was. There were CNY songs playing in the background, longevity peaches found inside the tanks and a ‘Monkey Mission’ for the kids to do as they walk through the aquarium!

The CNY festive mood begun outside the aquarium!


The kids lost no time at getting their ‘Monkey Mission’ cards, and set off to find the fishes! What I really like about such initiatives at SEA Aquarium is that they always incorporate learning into fun. That’s probably why my kids always look forward to visiting SEA Aquarium as well. :)




Kudos to the team at SEA Aquarium – I think they are really creative! They may only have fishes and underwater creatures, but they found a way to link them to the 12 zodiac signs!



There are vendors selling candy floss on a light stick inside the aquarium, but they are really not cheap at $7 each.

Don’t you agree with me that the red lanterns play a big part in drumming up the CNY atmosphere? :)

SEA Aquarium is really one of my favorite attractions on Sentosa – So many things to see, admire and learn about. Therapeutic to the soul!


If you are planning to visit this weekend before the Gong SEA Fa Cai ends, make sure you stop by this art & craft corner at the end of the tour, and try your hand at making ang pow fishes! That’s also the place where the kids can receive their reward for completing the Monkey Mission!



Bring your ang pow fishes home or join the rest of the fishes on the cherry blossom plant!

And yes, there are some props for dress-up fun, which is always a hit with the kids.


Make a trip to SEA Aquarium this weekend before this special CNY programme comes to an end! :)
