THE AQUARIUM MUSEUM
An aquarium offering a fun and educational way to discover the region's underwater flora and fauna.
Le Musée Aquarium, created in 1867, is part of the Arcachon Institute of Marine Biology, a research and teaching establishment for the marine environment. And this aquarium is quite simply the oldest in France, and was the first observatory of marine life. Many species of the fauna and flora of the region's underwater world are presented in a playful and didactic form with simple and accessible explanations. We like to walk among the turtles, dogfishes, sea breams, anemones, starfish... The most curious will be able to visit the specialized rooms presenting the archaeology, the history of the region and, of course, oyster farming.
