Not a bad attempt, went to the one at La Rochelle last year and found it to be a bit better, and La Rochelle is a small town. A bit expensive @ e15.50c each I thought, about half the price would be a true reflection of it's contents, The Ships bow video display was good though, almost felt sea sick watching it!
From the beginning I was impressed with the aquarium. It was huge, with many different activities, notably the life-like boat experience and the feeding of the penguins. Must-see for all animal lovers; the sharks were amazing, as well as the indoor waterfall. Loved it loved it loved!
The fish in the aquaria are beautiful, especially the large tank with fearsome sharks. The 3D adventure is absolutely overrated, waiting in queue for a two minute 3D movie. The people working there really made this an awful start: we had a ticket from a tourist information office giving eur 1,50 discount per person. At the entrance they would only give 1,50 discount on one single ticket, not on each ticket. On their family ticket they would not give any discount at all. None of the staff speaks any English or even tries to speak English.None of the booklets are available in English. Although some of the information in the aquarium is in English, the staff was not aware of that.... What a miserable start for a reasonable attraction.
I was expecting big things when I walked into the enchanting entrance, but as I walked further into the aquarium, I realised its just average compared to others I have visited. Also, I feel its not very visitor-friendly as not all the information boards are written in English. Kids will enjoy it.
This aquarium is just big enough for young children and quite funThe whole family loves this place.
An excellent aquarium. Great for the whole family. Lots of hands-on stuff. Excellent explanations and a realistic experience on a boat in a storm. A must-see for kids of all ages.
This is a nice place to go with friends or with your family. Impressive aquarium where you can see real sharks! A place to go!
There are many aquariums and personallista this one is not for us. Great ones can be found e.g. In Istanbul
Spent 2-3 hours going slowly through the aquarium by myself and it was amazing! I really enjoyed it and it's not just a one pond place - lots to see! Great and in a great area (Odysseum). Perfect place to spend the day especially with friends or family. But expect to pay for it!
If you want to see marine animals and learn a lot about them visit this interesting aquarium. They com mostly from the Mediterranean Sea, hence the name "Mare nostrum", but penguins and tropical fish are not forgotten. You can also enjoy without anything to fear the thrills of a storm from the wheel of a boat. The entrance fee is somewhat expensive but the costs must be high, too.
