Jellyfish

Jellyfish are older than all of our ancient reptiles. Scientists believe they first swam in our oceans around 500 million years ago! In our center you'll get to spot one of them; Japanese Sea Nettle Jellyfish


Jellyfish have venomous tentacles that they use to capture their prey. Most jellyfish are harmless to humans, but a few including the Box Jellyfish can cause a painful sting. Some species of baby fish are able to hide amongst Jellyfish tentacles for protection!

At SEA LIFE Nagoya you’ll be able to see jellyfish in a whole new light!
