A remarkable aquarium in Valencia, the largest in Europe, with a restaurant, dolphinarium and various areas.
Oceanogràfic is an immense complex imagined by the architect Félix Candela and inaugurated in 2002. The Submarino restaurant, located in the heart of the complex, is undoubtedly the most emblematic building in Oceanogràfic with its lily-shaped structure. Covering more than 110,000 m ², Oceanogràfic is Europe's largest aquarium. It is divided into ten large areas that reconstitute the habitats of the Mediterranean, the polar oceans (Arctic and Antarctica), the islands, the tropical seas, temperate seas and the Red Sea. The park also hosts a huge delphinarium with performances several times a day. After a reorganization of its facilities, it opens its doors with two important innovations, a habitat for crocodiles and an exhibition of butterflies to observe the development phases of many species. Other news to report: the Aldabra turtles can now be seen all year round; new cylindrical aquarium with hammer sharks; another dedicated to clowns, highly appreciated by children; and finally the construction of a new lake where migratory birds can stop in Valencia. Nearly one and a half million visitors discover it every year.

Comment ils s'organisent pour nourrir les requins? comment ils intègrent les nouveaux poissons dans les bassins? La reproduction? Mais aussi tout leur travaille pour le sauvetage des tortues blessées.
The aquarium is superb and more it is late hours of closure.
You can walk comfortably and attend a show of dolphins in the evening.
The tunnel offers superb discovered toxic and sharks!
The oceanogràfic is next to the museum of arts and sciences, Calatrava… I structure recommend it, you will take the your eyes!!!!
Toutefois, j'ai noté un petit manque d'entretient des bassins décoratifs extérieurs et malgré la taille immense des lieux, la visite passe un peu vite.
