The 9 main themes of the St Malo aquarium

 

The Atlantic room, with its 7 aquariums, will make you discover the species of our Atlantic Ocean, that you think you know. But beware of congers!

And why not go and meet the colourful fish in the Mediterranean room with its 10 aquariums, the octopus known as the "chameleon of the seas", which may give you a demonstration of its intelligence.

And even more colourful, the tropical world will fill your eyes. The fish of the coral reefs compete in colour and originality. It's a little trip around the world and fantasy: dragon eel, stone fish, flying scorpion fish....

Pass through the mangrove if you want to see piranhas without the risk of being bitten! You will discover the aquatic forest formed by the mangrove trees, which plays a vital role in the reproduction and protection of animals.

Ah! you will love the unmissable ring of the seas at the Saint-Malo aquarium. It will give you the impression of being on an enchanted merry-go-round of sharks, turtles, giant groupers and other schools of fish.

The abyssal room will plunge you into the darkness of the deep: giant crabs, pine cone fish and especially the flash fish that will dazzle you!

For young and old privateers, visit the sunken ship, a pirate-set galleon in 10,000 litres of water overrun by blacktip sharks, leopard rays and the great Napoleon fish.

We then arrive at the sea laboratory, which is not only the nursery of the Grand Aquarium de St-Malo but also the place where you will discover the importance of plankton and the notions of food chains.

To finish, what could be better than a touch pool to touch and caress a ray, a dogfish of the small species that can be seen while diving in Erquy, feed the Koi carp... an unforgettable interaction.
