Muscat: The Mall of Muscat has reduced the entry fee at Oman Aquarium for students, families receiving social security and people with special needs, the chairman of Al Jarwani Group informed on Sunday.

In an online statement issued on its official twitter page, Sheikh Mahmoud Al Jarwani said: “Taking into account the views of society, we have decided to reduce the entry fee by 50 per cent for three categories: students, social security families, and people with special needs.”

“The Aquarium project at the Muscat Mall has cost more than OMR15 million and has thirteen ecosystems to conserve the diversity of aquatic areas,” the chairman added.

Currently, the ticket price for adults is OMR8.5 and OMR6.5 for children.

Oman’s first aquarium opened its doors to the public on April 14, 2019. It is located inside the Mall of Muscat and features many Omani fish as well as sharks, lobsters, turtles, rays, local corals, penguins and crocodiles
