Oceanarium

The Oceanarium has recreated environments from 10 places around the world, including the Amazon, the Mediterranean, deep sea, Key West and the Great Barrier Reef. You can watch here, among others piranhas, sharks, rays, seahorses and clowns. In addition to fish, there live penguin and otter colonies, as well as crocodiles, sea turtles and lizards.

It is here that the world's first interactive diving cage was created and made available, which allows you to view a 270-degree virtual ocean view. Interactive touch technology brings viewers closer to computer-created creatures such as dolphins, rays and sharks. An additional attraction is the meeting with the blue whale, which "swallows" the cage.

The second interactive exhibition is "Global Meltdown", which shows the potential effects of global warming. It takes viewers to the future when sea level has risen to such an extent that tropical fish and sharks swim through the streets of London.
