Alushta Aquarium, Public aquarium in Alushta, Crimea.
Alushta Aquarium is a public facility housing more than 300 fish species distributed across tanks that represent different habitats. The displays showcase the biological variety of both marine and freshwater ecosystems across several exhibition areas.
The aquarium was established in 2003 and has since become an important part of the region's educational infrastructure along the southern coast. Its creation coincided with growing interest in marine conservation and environmental education in the area.
The aquarium serves as a learning hub where visitors come to understand marine life better. Schools and families use the guided tours and information displays to explore the diversity of underwater creatures.
The facility is located on Gorky Street 4 and offers regular feeding demonstrations along with opportunities to interact directly with some aquatic animals. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the different sections comfortably and take part in the presentations.
A special section of the facility is dedicated to tropical rainforest habitat and houses monkeys, raccoons, lizards, and various tropical bird species. This area gives visitors a rare look at forest dwellers alongside the aquatic life.
