Seaquarium du Grau-du-Roi

Seaquarium du Grau-du-Roi is a public aquarium in the southern French coastal town of Le Grau-du-Roi. The facility houses sharks, seals, sea turtles, and fish from Mediterranean and tropical waters across several themed sections.

The aquarium opened in 1989 as an educational facility for marine ecology. Over the years it expanded with new tanks and a marine research institute.

The Marine Institute within the Seaquarium conducts research projects and develops educational programs in partnership with regional scientific organizations.

The aquarium opens daily and provides multilingual signage along the circuit. A visit typically takes two to three hours, and toilets are located near the entrance and at the end of the route.

A dedicated shark section spans multiple levels and displays species from different oceans. Visitors can watch the animals through glass walls from several angles, including from below.
