Aquarium

The San Sebastián Aquarium is a captivating oceanographic museum located on the city’s harbor. Housed in a building from 1928, it combines marine life displays with the history of Basque seafaring. Visitors can explore tropical fish, rays, and native Cantabrian species in beautifully designed tanks. A highlight is the 360° underwater tunnel, where sharks, turtles, and schools of fish swim all around you. The museum also showcases maritime artifacts, including a large whale skeleton, making it a unique mix of science and culture.
