Boasting over 100 display tanks swimming with sharks, penguins, turtles, jellyfish and many more underwater critters, gear up for a fun-filled day of discovering the exciting world under the sea. Learn the history of the planet and its biological evolution, reminding you, through some tanks, of the species that have survived millions of years, like the great sharks — now considered living fossils.
Begin in the Mediterranean Sea, pass through the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, to reach the splendid coral reef of the Red Sea, populated by colourful organisms. Here, all the aquarium tanks must be observed with great attention, especially the smaller ones, which meticulously recreate different environments, rich in life and in mystery.
The aquarium then becomes not only a fascinating place where beauty shows itself most purely, but an environment of observation and education that allows you to connect with the underwater world. The second largest aquarium in Italy, Aquarium of Cattolica, is a must-visit on your trip to the Adriatic Coast.
