About
Quick facts: The aquarium houses over 8,000 creatures from 700 different species, offering a vibrant glimpse into marine biodiversity. You can explore a 3,000 square meter coral reef exhibit that replicates the ecosystems of the Mediterranean Sea and tropical waters.
Highlights: A standout feature is the 8-meter deep Shark Tank with a transparent tunnel that lets you walk through and see sand tiger sharks glide just inches away. The aquarium also hosts interactive touch pools where visitors can feel starfish and sea cucumbers, creating a hands-on marine adventure.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes as you’ll do a fair bit of walking around the exhibits.
- Bring a waterproof phone case for underwater photo opportunities in the tunnel.
- Skip the café inside; better eateries are just a short walk away.
- Visit the jellyfish area later in the day when the lighting is spectacular for photos.
