🌊 Themed Aquariums to Explore Biodiversity
The Aquarium features several themed tanks that faithfully recreate natural habitats:
- The Coastal Tank: home to crabs, lobsters, and anemones typical of the Breton coast.
- The Great Reef: a spectacular space with colorful fish, starfish, and corals.
- Freshwater Habitats: featuring trout, crayfish, and other species from local rivers.
Each tank comes with educational explanations, helping visitors understand the ecological role of each species and the importance of protecting these ecosystems.
🐦 The Bird Show: A Unique Experience
The Aquarium also offers a bird show, unique in Brittany. Visitors can observe birds of prey, parrots, and other species in a performance that combines agility, elegance, and education. Caretakers explain the birds’ behaviors and raise awareness about species conservation.
