In addition to the hundreds of varieties of fish and sea life from all over the world, including stingrays, sharks, piranhas and sea scorpions, the aquarium's Shark Walk allows visitors to walk over a glass platform with sharks swimming just below their feet. Californian cownose rays, which swim in synchronised formations, are another recent feature, as is a tunnel constructed from a 25m-long whale skeleton, beneath which visitors can watch a tropical ocean of fish, coral and green turtles. The Rainforests of the World area, complete with exotic vegetation and a tropical waterfall, is home to a pair of six-foot dwarf crocodiles, and for Easter 2013 the Ocean of Stars exhibit opened, showcasing six different species of starfish, with a tentacle tunnel that gives you a close-up view of all those Asteroidea. The aquarium is well placed for the other attractions of the South Bank: it's right beside the London Eye and a 20-minute walk along the Thames from Tate Modern.
