Such a peaceful place! First time visiting Barcelona and was unsure where to start. Found Headout had suggestions and off I went to the Aquarium. Surprisingly peaceful despite all the children visiting. Very informative. Lots to see and learn from. Better than the UK Aquariums i have been to. Would recommend and go again

I enjoy every minute of the Aquarium! It is really impressive this space, you can stay for hours just to look at the dinamics of fishes, the colors, the corals. We received the tickets fast, there was no problem, everything is very well organized. Thank you!

The fish are so colorful! Great idea to have treadmills in front of the large aquariums so that everyone can see well. Amazing discus fish, especially the red ones! All of the aquariums are super clean, no algae, and the fish look very healthy! These are professionals at work!

The experience was very unique, with lots of interesting facts, the Aquarium had so many fish species with beautiful coloring and backgrounds. My family and I were especially impressed by the quality of the water tanks, the diversity of fish and how spectacular seeing real big sharks was. A truly unforgettable experience!

As for the boat trip, unfortunately I couldn't get there in time, I chose the time wrong and the difficulty of moving around in Barcelona's traffic hampered the experience, they could have made the time more flexible, but in the end it was very satisfactory.

    Securing our tickets online and having them on my phone made entry super quick and easy. This was very helpful, given the day was quite wet and windy, and the ticket booths were out in the elements.
