A place worth knowing

L’Aquàrium turns a Port Vell visit towards the Mediterranean and tropical seas. Its displays combine aquatic habitats with interactive and family spaces, while specialist experiences provide a different level of access.

Follow the main exhibition first and decide separately whether a guided visit or extra activity suits you. Check the conditions of shark experiences and other special programmes rather than assuming they are part of ordinary admission.
