The Oceanogràfic in Valencia is an experience that literally takes your breath away! It is the largest aquarium in Europe and it shows: every area is meticulously designed down to the smallest detail. The most exciting moment was walking through the shark tunnel: seeing these giants of the sea swimming right above your head is an indescribable feeling. I also loved the Arctic area with the beluga whales, creatures of infinite grace, and the dolphin show, which is truly captivating. The architectural structure by Félix Candela is a modern masterpiece that makes the visit even more special. It's the perfect place for both families and marine biology enthusiasts. If you're passing through Valencia, you absolutely can't miss it! 🐠✨

Visiting the Oceanogràfic and the Science Museum with my wife and 10-year-old son was an unforgettable journey through marine wonders and futuristic discoveries. We were literally amazed by the stunning flora and fauna: species we had never seen before swimming in dreamlike settings, making everything extremely pleasant and magical. It's the perfect combination for families: while the aquarium enchants with its natural beauty, the museum stimulates the mind with interactive games that my son loved. Impeccable organization and a wonderful atmosphere gave us a day of pure fun. A 10 out of 10 experience that I recommend to everyone!

No problems getting in despite the long lines. The dolphins were fantastic, my daughter loved them! But so was the sea lion show. What really impressed us was the happiness in the air. The animals are well cared for and pampered, and you can see that all the staff really take good care of them. The tunnel for observing the sharks was magnificent! Personally, I loved the turtles swimming peacefully among the sharks, they were fantastic! We were then lucky enough to have lunch at the Submarino restaurant (I recommend booking!), immersed in this huge aquarium. We will definitely repeat this experience because we literally fell in love with it!!!!

At the Science Museum, I rediscovered that simple desire to understand how things work. The interactive experiences make you want to touch everything (especially our little flight over Florence). At the Oceanogràfic, I felt like I was traveling from one ecosystem to another, carried away by the beauty of the pools, the tranquility of the animals, and the almost soothing atmosphere, as well as the many restaurants where you can take a break between each pool. We found ourselves slowing down, especially at the beluga pool, observing and enjoying the moment. I had a truly memorable day visiting the Oceanogràfic and the Science Museum in Valencia. Wonder and discovery guaranteed.

"It was an unforgettable experience! The marine mammals, fish, and turtles are kept in the best conditions. Each dolphin has an incredible human being who takes care of its physical and mental health. What these people do is truly impressive! I was literally shocked by the care these humans give the animals. You can see the happiness on their faces! They are happy when they see the people who take care of them. The animals feel like they are in their natural environment! It's impressive. The price paid is nothing compared to the costs necessary for the welfare of the animals and fish! 😊. Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations!

Admission was smooth. The building and its surroundings are spectacular. We missed seeing ibises and birds in general in the spherical aviary. There are details designed for birds inside, but currently only fish and turtles can be seen inside. The aquatic creatures can be viewed in an amazing variety of sophisticated aquariums and combinations. I hope there will never be a serious power outage and that the animals will remain in good conditions for the rest of their lives. We also saw the dolphin show. The microphone volume before the show and the excitement of the many children were unpleasant. Feeding the cormorants was a special surprise. We were happy that there was a vegetarian option at the buffet, and we had a delicious meal.

    I visited the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, purchasing a combo ticket for the three main museums, and I must say it was a really good choice. The price of the combined ticket is much cheaper than buying separate tickets and allows you to enjoy the full experience without having to miss out on anything. If you're already there, I think it's really worth visiting them all. The first one we visited was the Science Museum. I found it really interesting and engaging. Being a foreigner and not coming from Spain, it was also a way for me to discover and better understand some things related to their scientific history and advances in the field of medicine and research. What I liked most was that it's not a classic museum where you just look at things: it's very interactive, with lots of experiments and activities that allow you to better understand what you're observing. I also found the staff to be very friendly and helpful, which always makes the experience more enjoyable. The Oceanographic was probably the place that left me most speechless. It's huge and truly spectacular. Seeing all those marine animals up close was a wonderful experience: sharks, fish of all kinds, jellyfish... everything was very well cared for and organized. One of the best moments was the dolphin show, which was really exciting. You can see that a lot of work goes into it by those who take care of the animals and the organization, so a big compliment goes to all the workers and employees who make this experience possible. Finally, we visited the last building, where we watched a 45-minute film in a huge room, a kind of giant theater with a screen that completely surrounds you. It was truly magnificent and very immersive; it almost felt like being inside the film. It was the perfect end to the visit. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I would really recommend to anyone visiting Valencia. The combined ticket allows you to see everything at your own pace and enjoy three different but equally interesting experiences. It was definitely one of the things I liked most about the trip.

    I visited the Oceanogràfic in Valencia and the Science Museum in the City of Arts and Sciences on a very rainy day, unfortunately, so the experience was somewhat affected by the weather. I liked the Oceanogràfic much more. It is really big and well organized: there are lots of different areas with marine animals from various ecosystems. The aquariums are spectacular, especially the tunnel where you walk under sharks and rays. The belugas and dolphins were also among the best parts of the visit. Despite the rain, the structure is well designed for moving between the pavilions, so you can still enjoy the experience. The Science Museum, on the other hand, didn't impress me as much. The building is very beautiful architecturally, but inside, some of the exhibits seemed a bit repetitive or unengaging to me. It's probably more interesting for children or those who really love interactive science. With the rain and the fatigue of the day, I found it rather boring and it didn't leave me with the same positive impression as the Oceanogràfic. In general, I would definitely recommend the Oceanogràfic if you are visiting Valencia, while the Science Museum is more optional, especially if you don't have much time in the city.

    Yesterday I visited Oceanografic for the first time. I went with my mom, and we had an unforgettable experience. First of all, the facilities are very large and impressive, and each one is designed to maintain the animals’ natural habitats. We received help from the staff several times, and we’re certainly very grateful for their kindness. I’d also like to mention that the interactive dolphin show is highly acclaimed, and we especially want to congratulate the dolphin trainers who do such a great job every day. Next, I’d like to say that the food at the cafeteria is generally very good; we especially loved the paella. My only negative point in this review would be the pistachio cheesecake, which, in my opinion, needs to be reworked since it doesn’t taste like cheesecake—neither in texture, flavor, nor color. Honestly, we ate it because we’d already paid for it. However, we enjoyed every single exhibit at Oceanografic. We also have to mention that the park is clearly well-maintained, which is commendable given the number of visitors it receives. Thank you very much!!!

    A must-see during our stay in Valencia was a visit to the City of Arts and Sciences and the Oceanogràfic. It’s an extraordinary architectural complex that leaves you speechless simply because of its beauty: modern, futuristic, and perfectly integrated with the water and open spaces. The museum visit was truly engaging and educational, with interactive exhibits that make science accessible and fun for everyone, adults and children alike. It’s one of those places where you learn while having fun, sparking curiosity and wonder. The Oceanogràfic, meanwhile, is simply spectacular: one of the largest and most fascinating aquariums in Europe. The journey through the world’s marine ecosystems is meticulously curated, allowing you to observe sharks, dolphins, belugas, and countless other marine species up close in environments recreated with great care. A truly exciting, educational, and perfectly organized experience. I highly recommend a visit to anyone coming to Valencia: it’s a place that uniquely combines culture, science, and wonder.

    I visited the Oceanogràfic in Valencia, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The park is huge, well-organized, and allows you to discover countless marine species in beautifully maintained and spectacular settings. The various themed areas are very interesting, and the tanks are impressive—especially the underwater tunnel, which really makes you feel like you’re immersed in the ocean. It’s a perfect place for both adults and children, and you can really sense the focus on education and the conservation of marine animals. The shows and educational activities are also engaging and well-organized. My only small suggestion concerns the tickets: it might be helpful to offer the option of purchasing tickets with more flexible dates, so visitors can choose when to use them without having to set a specific date. This would be a very convenient solution, especially for travelers. Overall, however, I highly recommend a visit to anyone passing through Valencia!
