More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach and the Mediterranean hush changes the tempo: gulls wheel, salt air brushes your face, and ahead the aquarium’s blue facade promises a condensed ocean. Inside, corridors of glass lead you beneath the Big Blue — Europe’s deepest shark tank — where hammerheads and rays glide above and tropical reef tanks pulse with color.

Book the bus pickup in advance

Arrive for the shark feeding
Plan to be at the Big Blue early—feeding sessions are scheduled and draw crowds, so early arrival guarantees a good viewpoint.

Some exhibit transitions and the adjacent beach area are exposed — sunscreen and a hat matter in summer.
