Maréis, Public aquarium in Étaples, France.
The Maréis aquarium exhibits over 500 marine animals from the English Channel and North Sea in multiple specialized tanks and environments.
Established in 2001, the facility operates in a former fishing net manufacturing building, connecting to the maritime heritage of Étaples.
Former fishermen and their family members guide visitors through exhibits, sharing direct knowledge of local fishing traditions and marine life.
The aquarium operates daily throughout the year, with online reservations required to guarantee entry due to visitor capacity limitations.
The nursery section allows visitors to observe baby skates and catsharks potentially hatching from their eggs at any moment.
