L’Aquàrium de Barcelona continues to establish itself as one of the city’s most iconic attractions, combining scientific education, family entertainment, and environmental awareness. Located in Port Vell, it hosts thousands of marine species and offers a unique experience for visitors of all ages.
In recent months, the aquarium has introduced major updates. Following a significant renovation investment, it now features more immersive experiences, including digital technologies and interactive spaces where visitors can “walk over the ocean” or explore ecosystems such as mangroves.
In 2026, it also strengthens its family-oriented offer with initiatives like “Supercapdesetmana,” a special promotion allowing children to enter for free when accompanied, encouraging playful learning about marine life.
Sustainability remains a core focus in this new phase. The aquarium promotes ocean conservation through educational exhibitions, themed events such as World Water Day, and programs highlighting the importance of protecting marine biodiversity.
With more than 11,000 animals and hundreds of species, the Barcelona Aquarium is not only a tourist attraction but also a leading European center for environmental education and marine conservation.
Overall, 2026 is the perfect time to rediscover this renewed space, where technology, education, and entertainment come together to bring the underwater world closer to everyone.
