Visit the Grand Aquarium of Saint-Malo
During your stay in Brittany, why not head out to sea... without leaving dry land? The Grand Aquarium of Saint-Malo takes you on a true ocean world tour. An ideal outing for families, just an hour's drive from your Best Western Le Duguesclin hotel in Saint-Brieuc.
The Grand Aquarium of Saint-Malo has no fewer than 10 worlds and more than 600 aquatic species, spread across environments as surprising as they are captivating.
Explore the cold seas in search of the giant Japanese crab, the pine cone fish, or the Aurélie jellyfish.
The subdued lighting and the cool water create a unique atmosphere, faithful to their natural habitat.
In the room dedicated to the Emerald Coast, keep your eyes peeled: the impressive but often well-hidden conger eels have made their home here. Then take a break at the Marine Laboratory, where you'll discover the importance of plankton, marine food chains, and even the aquarium's nursery with its annual births.
The rest of the tour immerses you in the waters of the Mediterranean, the tropics, the mangroves, and even freshwater.
Each tank reveals exotic fish, multicolored corals, and dazzling biodiversity.
Don't miss the underwater cave: with its 600,000 liters of water, its 360° glass wall, and its sensory atmosphere, it's an immersive experience to be fully experienced.
Aboard the sunken galleon, you'll discover a spectacular coral reef and observe creatures straight from the Indo-Pacific basin.
For the more adventurous, the Aquarium offers an extraordinary interactive experience. Embark on the Nautibus for a mission 300 meters below the surface in search of a mysterious sunken city. Combining science, marine legends, and magical settings, it's a complete escape!
After this journey across the seas and oceans, treat yourself to a sunny break on the terrace of La Taverne restaurant at the Hotel Le Duguesclin in Saint-Brieuc.
