Main tour of the aquarium

The main tour of Palma Aquarium starts from a small square you will find as soon as you enter. This square is designed to let you organise your route in peace and quiet before jumping into the deep to experience the various tanks and gardens in the aquarium area.

• The Mediterranean

Naturally, the first part of the tour starts where it should: in the Mediterranean. Young and old can learn more about the most common species found in the sea that surrounds Mallorca: octopuses, anemones, seahorses... Next to each tank is an information screen or panel with the names of all the curiosities you can see inside. There are also interactive ponds here with starfish or small fish for children to approach and gently touch. You can always find experts near the tanks who provide information and help you with any questions you might have about the various inhabitants. Also, if your visit coincides with mealtimes, you’ll get an opportunity to watch as they feed the fish.

• Tropical Seas

This second part of the tour focuses on marine corals and Palma Aquarium actually houses the largest exhibition of corals in Europe. This area lets you immerse yourself in the marine ecosystems of the Atlantic, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific. It’s certainly one of the most eye-catching sections where you can find more than 70 different coral species and millions of colourful fish.

• Mediterranean Gardens

Pensada para que podáis hacer un alto en vuestro recorrido, la zona de jardines se abre justo en la mitad del camino. Aquí encontraréis también servicios prácticos como la zona de aseos y un área recreativa con parque infantil para los más pequeños. La oferta gastronómica incluye el restaurante Mediterra Buffet, el bar Mediterra, La Cantina y la pizzería Oasis, perfectos para hacer una pausa durante la visita.

• The Jungle

Keep enjoying the outdoors, as the route through Palma Aquarium leads you further into the heart of the Amazon jungle just by climbing to the roof of the building. This is a recreation of an authentic Amazon jungle with typical vegetation as well as a seven-metre-high waterfall.

• The Big Blue

Both young and old are amazed by the Big Blue. This immense tank holds 3,5 million litres of seawater and is home to a multitude of marine species, from tiny fish to tiger sharks. Its design allows visitors to pass through as if they were walking on the bottom of the sea.

• Medusarium

This is one of the most relaxing and beautiful parts of Palma Aquarium. It’s made up of a multitude of jellyfish floating around in a tank under the most perfect, dimmed light to highlight their colours and make them look like magical creatures.

• Corals 

Over the years, since its inauguration, Palma Aquarium has developed new and fun attractions for you to enjoy as a family.

• Aquadome: One of the most popular ones is the 3D experience with whales, projected in the Aquadome to simulate a 360° immersion in the sea together with these impressive marine mammals.
• Snorkelling with rays: This activity is one of the most amazing ones the aquarium has to offer if you go there with young children. On offer is the possibility to go for a snorkelling session with rays, at all times watched and guided by the aquarium's experts, of course. *Available seasonally. Available from mid-June to October.
• Backstage tour: Perfect for the endlessly curious, this experience takes you beyond the tanks to explore the hidden workings of the park. Along the way, you’ll uncover the challenges sea turtles face as their habitats are increasingly affected by human activity. 
• Shark Vision Boat: If you want to experience a real family adventure, you can get on a boat at the aquarium in Palma with a transparent bottom so you can float on top of the Big Blue tank and see the enormous sharks that live there up close.
• Diving with sharks: Would you dare to swim in the shark tank? This is certainly one of the most exciting adventures that Palma aquarium has to offer: diving at a depth of 8.5 metres in the huge tank, surrounded by fish and... a dozen sharks! This is only for the truly brave visitors!
