Located in Boulogne-sur-Mer, in the heart of the Opal Coast, Nausicaá takes you on a dive into the heart of the seas. Recognized by Unesco, Nausicaá is one of Europe's largest sites dedicated to the discovery and protection of the marine world.
With family or friends, embark on a memorable day at the heart of the blue planet, where you'll meet over 58,000 animals. Discover all its secrets and treasures, but also its fragility, through 3 immersive and entertaining trails: "In the Eye of the Climate" and its 430m2 immersive room, "Voyage en Haute Mer" and "Des Rivages et des Hommes". All the spaces have been designed to bring you as close as possible to the animals, for a unique sensory experience!
Since 1991, Nausicaá's mission has been to raise public awareness of ocean preservation issues. A total of 19 million visitors have been made aware of the ocean's fragility, including 5 million schoolchildren. From the outset, Nausicaá has been a committed center, participating in numerous conservation programs, research activities and breeding programs: over 2,000 births take place here every year!

Members' reviews on NAUSICAA
Nous avons fait la visite en presque 2 heures sans vraiment s’arrêter pour lire, étant avec un enfant de deux ans il voulait surtout voir les poissons, et il a été très content. Les commentaires concernant le manque d’espèces n’est pas justifié. En revanche il est vrai que parfois on se perdait un petit peu ????
Le top reste le grand bassin qui offre plusieurs point de vue !
Des personnes sont devant les vitres : ceux qui sont assis et attendent puis plus de 1/2 heure (voire 1 heure !!!)... ne voient pas !!!
De plus : 20 mn à tourner en rond pour trouver cette zone 15, mal indiquée, c'est difficile pour les personnes à mobilité réduite.
