SeaLife is located near the Alexanderplatz bus stop, next to the Lustgarten park. The zoo is half an hour away, so you can combine a visit to both attractions.
At the entrance to the aquarium, visitors are greeted by fairytale characters with whom they can take photo. At the end of the tour you can buy a souvenir photo. You can take pictures with your own equipment, but not everywhere you can use a flash. There are lots of fish, octopus, moray eels and starfish in the aquarium. The aquariums are beautifully decorated, like little fragments of underwater life. There are also open tanks where you can watch the inhabitants from above.
SeaLife covers a total of 2,000 square metres, with many freshwater and saltwater aquariums and hundreds of species of fish and other marine life. If you don't feel like wandering around on your own, you can book a guided tour in the middle of the hall, which takes about an hour.
One of the main aims of the Oceanarium is to educate younger visitors about the environment, so there's a lot of attention paid to children's activities. For example, some of the inhabitants of the complex can be touched. There are also magnifying glasses to look at the fish through. Finally, every child can feel like a treasure hunter by taking part in the 'Find the Treasure' game and digging up a small prize.
