Constanța Aquarium, Public aquarium on the Black Sea coast in Constanța, Romania.
Constanța Aquarium is a public facility on the Black Sea coast featuring 57 tanks throughout its exhibition space. It displays over 100 species of fish and marine creatures from the Black Sea, Mediterranean, and tropical regions.
The building originally served as a restaurant for the adjacent Constanța Casino before transforming into Romania's first public aquarium in 1958. This conversion marked a turning point in how the waterfront location was used locally.
The place reflects the importance of the Black Sea to the local identity, displaying species that fishers and residents have known for generations. Visitors see living connections to the waters that shape the city.
Visitors should plan for seasonal opening hour variations, with extended times during warmer months and reduced hours in winter. It is helpful to check the current season before arriving to ensure you have enough time to explore all the tanks properly.
The largest tank holds 30 cubic meters (1,060 cubic feet) of water and houses several sturgeon species native to or historically important in the region. These fish are rarely seen in public facilities and showcase the special aquatic life of the area.
