Fish Spa at the Manila Ocean Park

____________________________________________

Our day at the Manila Ocean Park was well spent. Liz and I enjoyed looking at the colorful fishies and reading about their characteristics and such - and we even found Nemo!  When we got to the end, we had a nice view of the Manila Bay and an option to either take a glass bottom boat ride or have our feet eaten nibbled by fish... at a Fish Spa!

Doctor Fish ate our feet

It costs only P100 (~$2.00) and you get a free towel. Lol! But not advisable if you're squeamish about putting your feet in a shallow pool with fishes... and a whole lot of other people's feet. Hehe hehe...

The small fish are called Doctor Fish.

Oh, and if you're really ticklish, you should find someone or something to hold on to and prepare yourself to scream when you put your feet in the water. Haha! They tickle very VERY much.

The moment you put your feet in the water, dozens of Doctor Fish attack your feet and bite at them with their tiny mouths. No, it's not painful at all, but you do get a tingling sensation - ehem - at every bite. It's like getting a Doctor Fish pedicure. :p

After a while the tickling will subside and you get to enjoy the fish spa treatment more, the Doctor fish's tiny mouths nibbling at your feet. After the pedicure treatment, your feet will feel "clean" and smooth. :)
