Located on Kuwait’s waterfront, the Scientific Center serves as a hub of excellence for public environmental education of the Gulf region, focusing upon the natural habitats of the sea, the coast, and the desert of the Arabian Peninsula. The complex integrates an aquarium, a science museum, and a 250-seat, IMAX film theater into a rich blend of interactive natural and physical science experiences. These central components are complemented by dining, shopping and seven historic dhows docked harborside.
