ALLAGUI ABDELMALEK

Overall loved the aquarium, just bad timing with the renovations so didn't get to see the sharks and the penguins but really nice and educational. The restaurant has really good food.

A highly interesting and informative experience. Océanopolis features excellent, large window displays showcasing a diverse range of fish, shellfish, and other marine life that beautifully reflect the local ocean ecosystem. While some areas of the facility are currently undergoing redevelopment, the sections that remain open are outstanding and well worth the visit.

I found it worth visiting even with the limited capacity because of the construction work (two pavillions are temporarily closed). Interesting and educational displays, and animals seem very well cared for. Staff was super friendly and always offering a helping hand. In the oceanauts area you can "create' animals that will then be added to the big screen. A true highlight!

If you are like us traveling to Brest, it is better to check which building they open/close. We were told at arrival that 3 building are closed, so we literally visited pavilion de Bretagne and outdoor playground, but there is no price reduction which is not faire. Tow toddlers enjoyed the outdoors slide....

Great place to visit with kids with so many learning games and activities to educate on ocean and marine life and bio diversity and how to protect it. Buying tickets in advance is recommended to avoid waiting in queue especially on weekends and public to school holidays.

It is ok, but there are far better aquariums around. Admittedly, the place is currently undergoing a major renovation, so a large part of it is closed. But what we did see was mostly digital or interactive displays plus some tanks of mostly small creatures such as shrimps and seahorses. The only big animals visible were a few very bored seals in a tiny tank, swimming round repetitively. There were quite a few English translations and the staff were friendly. We stayed about an hour in total. Definitely don't travel specifically to visit, but it passes the time if you are in the area and the weather is bad. Hopefully, it will be improved when the big renovations are unveiled.

The aquarium was alright. Much of it is closed due to renovations, but I did enjoy seeing the seals and fish. I would recommend planning your visit for after the construction is finished, but if you're only in Brest for a short time and you like marine life, it's still worth a visit.

Every nice aquarium for the whole family. Lots of variety in the exhibits and when small children get restless, there are a few outdoor play areas for them to get the wiggles out. Bring your lunch - the restaurant is mediocre.
