Acuario Inbursa

Acuario Inbursa is a public aquarium in Mexico City's Nuevo Polanco district spread across five levels, with four floors built underground. It holds multiple marine environments with 1.6 million liters of ocean water displayed across 3,500 square meters and features about 14,000 specimens from 350 different marine species.

The facility opened in June 2014 and was created as an ambitious urban project led by Carlos Slim's investment. Its founding reflected a commitment to bring marine science and education to Mexico City's center.

The facility serves as a learning space where visitors discover how marine ecosystems function through hands-on displays and guided programs. People come here to develop a connection with ocean life and understand its importance to our world.

The facility features underwater tunnels where visitors observe marine life while remaining in the center of the city, making the experience accessible even without traveling to the coast. The layout allows you to move through the levels at your own pace and spend as much or as little time as you wish at each section.

The facility is built largely underground, extending four floors below street level, which creates an unusual sensation of depth while exploring marine life. This underground design transforms the visit into a distinct urban adventure that feels quite different from typical seaside aquariums.
