Bergen Aquarium, Public aquarium in Bergen Municipality, Norway
Bergen Aquarium is a public aquarium in Norway with numerous tanks displaying marine life from Norwegian waters and tropical zones. The facility spreads across multiple exhibition areas with different species in separate sections.
The facility opened in 1960 and has grown with major additions over the decades. A movie theater was added in 1995 to expand its offerings beyond the main exhibition spaces.
The aquarium serves as a gathering place where visitors discover how marine creatures live and interact in their natural habitats. You can observe behaviors and relationships between different species that are difficult to experience elsewhere.
The facility is accessible by elevators and offers a café serving fresh food on-site. Opening hours remain consistent throughout the year, making it an easy destination to plan.
Outdoor pools house seals and penguins that many visitors overlook while focused on indoor exhibits. These sections offer a different perspective on marine life compared to the tank displays.
