Gladly again
Everything was unproblematic. Bought a ticket and therefore did not have to wait in line. The aquarium is very nicely done. Unless a bunch of kids are crying, but we just walked away from that a bit:)

A moment of relaxation
My daughters and I decided to dedicate a few minutes of relaxation to ourselves among the tanks of the Barcelona Aquarium. Small, clean, with different species of fish; the tank with the walkway where you can observe the fish at 360 degrees is very beautiful.

I enjoyed the layout of it, especially where the fish swim over you. The gift shop is very cute as well, I was able to get some gorgeous glass souvenirs for my friends

S
Nice experience good for families
We saw all type of fish.. sharks are awesome. Suitable for kids and families. Also connected to a mall
D
Experience to try
From what I had read and the price I had many expectations despite this was still a good experience. The tunnel where you walk among sharks and other fish is the most fascinating part
M
Many varieties of fish...
Many varieties of fish and they even had sharks and penguins! The aquarium was very nice, but I made the mistake of going on a rainy Saturday. Apparently I wasn’t the only one who decided to escape the rain by visiting the aquarium. The place was full of very exuberant children. If this is a problem for you, you may want to attend on a weekday when schools are in session. Buying the tickets online to skip the line only really allows you to skip the ticket purchase line. There will still be a line to enter based on the time slot you booked.
C
Amazing.
Most beautiful aquarium I haven't seen yet. Organized and clean.. Beautiful and immersed o. I highly recommend it is the third time I go there and will definitely return again
M
Do not buy this ticket
The price of admission is very high for what you get. The aquarium livestock is mediocre at best. Maybe I had set my expectations too high thinking everything carrying the Barcelona name is first class. The signage was very very basic. Candidly I've seen better aquariums in private residences.
S
Super
Very nice aquarium. Pleasant visit. Different species to see especially sharks. What to do if visiting Barcelona
