The Oceanografico is a marine structure located in the eastern part of Valencia.
Spread over an area of 100,000 m2, it is home to hundreds of marine water and fresh water aquatic species.
The whole area is amazingly constructed under water. This underwater aquarium holds 45,000 aquatic creatures of 500 species. These include invertebrates, reptiles, birds and fish. Visitors can see the deadly sharks swimming inches away from the protective glass panels. Penguins, sea lions, dolphins, beluga whales, walruses and many more aquatic species move freely in this gigantic aquarium. No aquarium would be complete without a dolphin show and Oceanografico has one of the best. It also boasts one of the largest walk through glass tunnels where you can see the aquatic animals swim all around and above you.
There is an amazing underwater restaurant where you can enjoy great seafood. It is worth a trip to see one of Valencias finest structures.
