I found out about this place from a friend who resides outside of Melaka. The Coral Wonderland Melaka is located on the fourth floor of the Hatten Square just across the road from the Hatten Hotel. Thats why we stayed at the Hatten Hotel, I didn't want to brave the famous Melaka traffic jam.

| Stingray and Starfish that you can touch |
Keep your expectations low cause the Coral Wonderland is quite small unlike the aquarium in KLCC or Langkawi. Buts its ok for a start. The entrance fee might quite steep to some. The entrance fee is RM30 for adults and RM20 for kids.
Upon entering the Aquarium you will be greeted by what's advertised as the 'The Longest Touch Pool in Asia. Not sure if this is true but here you can touch or hold tame fishes like baby sharks, puffer fish, stingray, seahorse, starfish and many more. But my four year old didn't fancy touching slimy fishes.
Most of the displays were little aquariums with explanations of the displayed creatures. Its an educational place for families to visit, the kids can have fun touching the sea creatures. There's also a display on reptiles and bugs.
There's even a quiz paper given by the counter. After you complete it you will receive a key chain at the end of your tour as the reward for the quiz.
