のとじま水族館へ行ってきました。
I went to the Notojima Aquarium.
ここにはジンベイザメがいます。
There are whale sharks here.
日本では4つしかないうちの一つです。
It is one of only four in Japan.
目次
見ごたえがある水族館 An aquarium worth seeing.
久しぶりに来たので
完全に忘れていたのですが
こんなにも見ごたえがあったのかと
思いました。
I had completely forgotten what kind of aquarium it was because I had not been here for a long time.
I was surprised to see how spectacular it was.
まず、受付して入館するとすぐに
ジンベイザメがいる水槽があります。
First of all, as soon as you enter the reception area, there is a tank with whale sharks.
ほかの魚も泳いでいますが、
やはり主役に目が釘付けです。
There are other fish swimming around, but my eyes were glued to the main attraction, the whale shark.

そのほかにもアザラシやカワウソ、イワシトルネードの
展示がある建屋もありました。
There were also seals, otters, and a sardine tornado.
娘はアザラシに夢中でしたので、
子供は特に喜ぶと思います。
My daughter was crazy about the seals.
I think children will be especially happy.

水族館本館にもたくさんの魚の展示がありましたが、
子供たちが走り回っていたため
さーっと見ただけでした。
There were also many fish exhibits in the main aquarium.
This time we didn’t get to see most of them because the kids were running around so much.
今度は本館の方もゆっくりみたいです。
I would like to visit the main aquarium again.
2回みても飽きないイルカ・アシカショー Dolphin and sea lion shows that you can see twice and still not get bored
2回も見てしまいましたが、
飽きません。
We saw the dolphins and sea lions show twice and never got tired of it.
そもそもイルカの動きがすごいのもありますが、
毎回ショーの中身を変えておられますと思います。
The movement of the dolphins is amazing.
I also think that they change the content of the show every time.
イルカやアシカのすることが
変わっています。
The dolphins and sea lions do different things!
子供はもちろんのこと
大人も楽しめる内容でした。
It was enjoyable not only for children but also for adults.

食事とアクセス情報 Dining and access information
食事 Dining
ご飯は水族館の敷地内の屋台のような場所で買うか
もしくは敷地のすぐ横に食堂みたいなところがあります。
There are two places to eat.
One is a food stall on the aquarium grounds and the other is a restaurant-like place right next to the grounds.
手ぶらで来ても食事の心配はありません。
There is no need to worry about food even if you come empty-handed.
アクセス情報 access information
アクセスの交通情報は車でもバスでも問題なさそうです。
Getting to the aquarium by car or bus does not seem to be a problem.
駐車場はたくさんありますし、
バスの運行本数もそこそこあるなぁと思いました。
There are plenty of parking lots and a good number of buses.
バスは七尾駅や和倉温泉駅から出ています。
Buses leave from Nanao Station and Wakuraonsen Station.
1年に3,4回は来てもいいです。
I may come 3 or 4 times a year.
その時は年パス買うかな。
Maybe I will buy an annual pass then.

Whale shark aquarium where you can see whale sharks in Japan
There are four aquariums in Japan.
The Notojima Aquarium introduced in this article.
Churaumi Aquarium in Okinawa Prefecture.
Ioworld Kagoshima Aquarium in Kagoshima Prefecture.
Kaiyukan in Osaka Prefecture.
There used to be an aquarium that exhibited in the Kanto area.
It seems that he was at Hakkeijima Sea Paradise in Yokohama, but unfortunately he passed away.
If you live in Kanto or Tohoku area, it is a bit far, but please visit there.
You will be healed by seeing its size and elegance.
You will be impressed by the whale sharks and the size of the tank.
Even if you are not interested in sharks, you should go just to see the size of the tank.
