Océarium Le Croisic, public aquarium in France
Océarium Le Croisic is a public aquarium on the Breton coast that displays inhabitants from various seas in large, themed tanks. The facility presents animals from the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and tropical regions in environments designed to reflect their natural habitats.
The aquarium opened in 1995 and builds on the maritime tradition of the town, which has long played a key fishing and trading role. Its creation reflected an interest in promoting the local connection to the sea through education and conservation.
The facility connects visitors to the ocean life that has always been central to this coastal town's identity. You see how the tanks reveal the daily rhythms and behaviors of creatures from distant waters.
The facility is centrally located and easily reached by car, with free parking available nearby. Plan to spend about two to three hours exploring the different tanks at your own pace.
One of France's oldest public aquariums, it displays deep-sea inhabitants like sharks and sea turtles in large, floor-based tanks. These older facilities enable more direct observation without glass barriers on certain passages.
