INTRODUCTION
• India has been blessed with rich marine life because of its vast coastal
line which include Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal.
• Ocean mysteries such as corals of Andaman and Lakshwadeep lagoons
cannot be ignored because of various reasons by the visitors on tour to
India.
• Vertebrates like sea turtles, whales, alligators, bony fish and sharks or
invertebrates like jelly fish, sea stars, octopi, corals, lobsters, shrimps
and crabs can be explored in every part of oceans.
• Oceanarium, in a country like India, is required to facilitate and
promote the marine life of the nation.

city. The city has only few tourism attractions. Designing oceanarium in
the city, would directly boost the tourism sector of the nation.
