About

Kasai Marine Park (Kasai Rinkai Park) is one of Tokyo's premier family destinations, combining a celebrated aquarium, free beach access, a bird sanctuary, a Ferris wheel, and expansive parkland into a single bayside destination that can easily fill an entire family day. Situated on reclaimed land in Edogawa Ward along Tokyo Bay, the park offers a remarkable variety of nature and discovery experiences in a setting that feels genuinely removed from the urban bustle.

The jewel of the park is Kasai Rinkai Aquarium, home to one of the world's largest donut-shaped tuna tanks — a breathtaking circular viewing experience where thousands of Pacific bluefin tuna circle overhead in a mesmerizing display. Penguins, rays, jellyfish, and diverse marine life fill the rest of the aquarium, making it a highlight for children of every age.

Beyond the paid aquarium, the park's outdoor areas — including two sandy beaches, walking trails through the bird sanctuary wetlands, and landscaped gardens — are free to explore. A Ferris wheel at the northern end offers panoramic views of Tokyo Bay and the city skyline. For families visiting Tokyo who want to combine nature, wildlife, and outdoor play in one efficient excursion, Kasai Marine Park delivers exceptional value.
