The National Aquarium is bringing a Valentine’s Day celebration to Abu Dhabi like we’ve never seen before. The alternative Valentine’s Day experience takes couples “underwater” for a three-course meal and live musical performance inside the iconic underwater tunnel. Sounds like a show-stopping date.
The National Aquarium Valentine’s Day celebration includes a red carpet entrance, a live musical performance, three-course menu and a self-guided tour through the facility with your loved one. You’ll also get a photo souvenir to commemorate the special occasion. You can also surprise your partner with a personalised greeting.
There are limited spots available as the dinner is only happening on Monday February 14 from 8pm to midnight. Tables inside the tunnel cost Dhs1,500 per person, while tables on the outer area are Dhs1,300. The menu is a surprise, and will be shared upon booking.
There are few places where you can spend a unique Valentine’s Day date among thousands of colourful fish and sharks.

The National Aquarium in Al Qana is the biggest in the Middle East. It also has the largest collection of sharks and rays with more than 200 creatures swimming in its waters. It’s the only place in the UAE where you can see scalloped hammer head sharks and bull sharks. So, you’ll definitely have plenty to discuss and look at during the Valentine’s Day dinner.
