Aquarium de La Réunion

The Aquarium de La Réunion is a public facility that houses more than 700 fish species from Indian Ocean waters in large tanks filled with seawater. The tanks display different marine habitats that are typical of the ocean regions around the island.

The facility was established to protect and study the marine ecosystems of the region. It developed into an important center for ocean education and contributes to preserving the local marine biodiversity.

The facility reflects the importance of the ocean to island life, where fishing traditions and marine protection shape how locals view their surroundings. Visitors experience how the community maintains its connection to the waters around Reunion.

The facility is located at the coast in Saint-Paul and is easy to reach when visiting the harbor area. The visit is suitable for all ages and the interior is well-lit and comfortable to walk through.

The facility operates special tanks dedicated to breeding seahorses. This program helps preserve a species that is otherwise difficult to protect in the wild.
