A trip to Palma is incomplete without visiting the Palma Aquarium. The Palma aquarium engrosses us into the aquatic world.
The 'Big Blue', is the biggest shark tank in Europe and has about eight thousand sea animals of seven hundred different species. The Aquarium offers some great activities that people of all age groups will love.

They have about 25 aquariums having creatures and beautiful coral formations in the oceans of Asia, America and Oceania. The aquarium is enriched with a variety of sea creatures such as Lobsters, Starfish, Scorpion-fish, Prawns, Octopuses etc. It also has beautiful Mallorcan landscapes that are a large space in which Mediterranean plants and herbs are combined with tanks containing Turtles, Koi fish, Gilthead Breams and Rays. During summer the visitors can also enjoy a great activity called ‘Diving with the rays’. They also offer exploratory activities such as ‘Dive with the sharks’, 'Dinner with sharks', ‘shark sleepover’ along with corporate events, private events and also special events like ‘underwater weddings’. For kids, it has a wide range of activities such as games, face painting, water fights on the pirate ship or they can even become assistants to the Ocean Guides.

The Palma Aquarium offers an ocean pass which not only gives access to the marine park but also gives special discounts on restaurants, gift shops, birthdays and ‘shark sleepovers’. It is an extraordinary experience. The Aquarium  follows a philosophy -“in order to respect and protect the sea you must learn to appreciate it, and in order to appreciate it you must learn about it and understand it.”
