Museum
District : Notre-Dame / Quartier Latin
Description :
All year.
Show me a butterfly fish! What does a clown fish eat? Have you ever seen a sea urchin? To have all the answers to your kids’ questions about marine life, why not take the whole family on a trip to the Centre de la Mer?...
This educational museum reveals all the secrets of the deep through exhibitions highlighting the infinite variety of ocean organisms, plus tours of 7 aquariums housing tropical fish. For those who want to know more, they can join one of the fun and informative activities at the centre: a touch tank for close encounters with starfish, crabs and sea urchins; a detective game to seek out creatures and objects in the museum or the discovery of the hidden life of an aquarium.
