To create an environment where more people can visit with peace of mind, Tokyo Sea Life Park has started lending out "sensory goods" to support people with sensory sensitivities.

This initiative is a preliminary step to the opening of the new aquarium, based on a project developed during the consideration of the "Accessible Project" for the opening of the new aquarium in 2028.

For information on the Accessible Project, please see Frequently Asked Questions No. 13-4 regarding Tokyo Sea Life Park (tentative name) Development Project on the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau of Construction website.
