Through numerous themed tanks, Gardaland Sea Life allows visitors to discover the flora and fauna that characterises the waters of our planet. Here you can learn more about many of the marine ecosystems and admire some 5000 specimens belonging to about 100 different species.

The structure of the aquarium and the well-designed itinerary inside it, which allows the most scientific aspect to be combined with the recreational one, make Gardaland Sea Life a place devoted to “edutainment”, i.e. educating while having fun.

Things to do at Gardaland Sea Life

Gardaland Sea Life is an aquarium that through 40 themed tanks allows visitors to learn more about the different biosystems that characterise the earth’s fresh and salt waters. Starting from nearby Lake Garda, numerous rivers, the main seas and the oceans are explored. The presence of interactive panels and children’s games makes it possible not only to learn more about flora and fauna but also to be informed about the main problems of the marine world.

Among the most popular species that can be admired here are seahorses, starfish, napoleon fish and sharks. Don’t miss a walk under the impressive tunnel, the new ‘Interactive Ocean’ room and a visit to the sea lions. At the interactive rock pools you can find a real shark egg and see starfish up close. Under the tunnel, which is a truly breathtaking structure, it is possible to observe not only several specimens of sharks but also the leopard-tailed stingray, the giant grouper and several stingrays.

The visit also deals with the whole marine pollution awareness part of the tour and explains some of the activities implemented to preserve and protect the flora and fauna of this planet. In order to protect lakes and seas, various activities are organised, such as the Lake Garda shoreline cleaning day carried out in collaboration with the Municipality and the Civil Protection of Castelnuovo del Garda.

The Gardaland Sea Life site also includes the aquarium cinema, an information point, the Covo del Capitano bar and restaurant, a green area that includes a children’s playground and a picnic area.
