Many children might be wondering: is Santa Claus going to make it to visit all the homes around the world this unusual Christmas season?

Pursuit of Clean Oceans Driven by Locals in Ishikawa

Fear not. Santa Claus has made an appearance, flipping his fins in earnest at Kaiyukan, Osaka Aquarium, in what is known as the largest aquarium in the world.

On November 27, a diver dressed as Santa Claus plunged into the water, whizzing among various species of fish, brushing elbows (or should I say fins?) with the well-known example of whale sharks that make Kaiyukan in Minato-ku, Osaka, their home.

Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan is supposedly the largest aquarium in the worldーand also one of Japan’s most spectacular aquariums. It is known for its innovative presentation and for recreating a natural habitat for the aquatic animals of the Pacific Rim.

A diver, dressed in a red costume and wearing a white moustache, waved his hand underwater in front of the media on November 27.
