In 2010, Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo made history by introducing Gentoo penguins, the first of their kind in the region. These fascinating penguins, sourced from a U.S. facility, reside in a state-of-the-art exhibit that meticulously replicates Subantarctic conditions, maintaining air temperatures between 2-4°C and water temperatures between 5-7°C, along with a specialized light cycle. The exhibit, home to 16 penguins, features engaging climbing structures and a fun slide.   Visitors can embark on a unique journey starting with "Penguin Cove" and progressing to the "Penguin Encounter," where they can enjoy immersive interactions and learn about the penguins' natural behaviors.
