One of my places in San Sebastián

Aquarium de Biarritz (Musée de la Mer)

Biarritz

Dr. Abdulmajeed Al-MudarraMy tip
“Buy tickets online in advance in summer and holidays; feeding the seals is one of the best moments for children (check the times at the entrance). Reminder for the trip to France: carry your passport (and the visa or Spanish residence card) for each person.”

An aquarium in an “Art Deco” building from the 1930s on the rocks, with sharks, turtles and seals fed in front of visitors, and tanks of fish from the Bay of Biscay and beyond.

What to see

The Virgin's Rock is a few steps away, and so is the old fishermen's harbour.

Easy to reach, needs a car

45 minutes from San Sebastián; in central Biarritz near the Rocher de la Vierge, and the multi-storey building has lifts.

Address

Esplanade du Rocher de la Vierge, 64200 Biarritz
