A beautiful half-day trip to the Lisbon Aquarium on the weekend!

📍 Oceanario de Lisboa

Lisbon Marine Aquarium is said to be the second largest aquarium in the world, the whole building is very modern, the scenery is really beautiful! Almost every time I get to a tank, I want to stop and take pictures. Walked around for two hours.


Once used as the exhibition hall of the 1998 World Expo, it can be said that the past has a glorious history, which has also created today's status.

Lisbon Marine Aquarium attracts visitors from all over the world every year, it gathers a large number of Marine species, such as birds, mammals, fish, coelenterates, a total of 450 species, a total number of about 16,000, quite rich, here is the world's few famous sunfish aquarium (sunfish) one, very representative.


The most famous is the sunfish!! Lisbon is one of the few aquariums in the world where you can see sunfish

The point is, until October 13 this year, anyone under the age of 25 can buy a €10 discount ticket! You can buy tickets on the official website, and then save the ticket two-dimensional code screenshot or e-ticket PDF, will scan the code when entering the museum. When you buy your ticket, make sure you choose the entrance to que fish es tu on a purple background.

Tickets are 19 euros, and there are three pavilions.

  1. Tropical aquarium designed by Japanese masters. The music, the lighting, the layout is very Japanese, but very small.

  2. The aquarium. In fact, there are not many animals inside, but a large aquarium has opened a lot of glass scenes that people can visit.

  3. Movie Theater. Very recommend a 10-minute small movie, environmental knot introduction, after reading the feeling of the heart is like a good yoga meditation, with a large screen three-dimensional surround, is said to be built during the epidemic, strong push, do not miss to see.

    First visit the underwater forest exhibition on the 3rd floor (piso2), then go back to the 2nd floor and cross the gallery bridge to enter the aquarium.

Inside, there is a large two-story glass, which contains many different kinds of fish, and other boxes large and small to visit. The zones are divided by different climate types, and afterwards you can take a cable car to see Lisbon.

There are several kinds of jellyfish that are really beautiful! Glowing jellyfish floating in the water is fantastic!! Little seahorse is also beautiful! Nemo and Dolly Coco have sex, and the baby sea otter is the highlight bag of the entire ocean museum, so cute!!


There is a claw machine at the entrance, and inside is a gift certificate, each person can grab one free. There are four prizes: pen, T-shirt, drink and teddy bear. It's pretty easy to catch, but pick a lower position to catch. After catching the coupon, you can go to the aquarium gift shop and coffee shop to pick up things.

There is a tour direction sign in the aquarium, you can walk in the direction of the instructions, and you will not go back. Maybe two hours if you take your time.

Outside the aquarium there is a sea cable car from the aquarium to Gamma Tower. I didn't go myself, but it must have been beautiful to sit on the cable car at sunset and watch the sunset and the moon! According to my own observation during this period of time, the sunset appeared between 7:30 and 8 p.m., but I saw that the cable car official website said that from September 16, it only ran until 7 o 'clock, a little pity.

If you plan to eat nearby after visiting the aquarium, the old house and han table barbecue are not far away. But most restaurants in the neighborhood don't open until 6:30 or 7 p.m., so you can check out the Ocean Pavilion later (it closes at 7 p.m.). On the han table we ate that day, four girls who did not have a large appetite could eat very full at about 15 euros per person.
