The various species of marine life are grouped in well-lit tanks and pools which makes it possible to observe, at eye-level, a truly fantastic and enchanting sight of the marine ecosystem of the island.

You will also have the possibility of attending the feeding sessions with Giant Morays, sharks and sea turtles, within arm’s reach, being fed by hand, along with a question & answer session with an expert aquarist who will guide you through the richness of our largely diverse coral reef.
