Home to more than 11,000 animals, L’Aquarium makes the perfect family-friendly destination. Not to mention how delighted the children will be, what with themed tanks housing a massive number of varied species. In fact, it is reportedly the largest Mediterranean-themed aquarium in the world. 

Check out permanent exhibitions like Explora! and trigger your five senses in the form of over 50 interactive activities (your kids will love them too!). Also: Don’t miss out on the Jewels of the Sea Exhibition. Here, you’ll learn about the exotic molluscs shells which are used for various forms; from jewellery and decorations to useful tools. 

A marine life enthusiast? Then try to spot marine invertebrates, seahorses, shark eggs and tropical corals in these small tanks and you might try to discover something new! 

But what steals the limelight here is the 80-metre-long (read: transparent) underwater tunnel that allows you to walk among sharks, moray eels, ocean sunfish and giltheads.
