The aquarium has over 5 diverse zones – see scorpionfish at Valletta Harbor, leopard geckos in the Reptile and Amphibian zone, and more.
In the Main Tank, find species from the Indo-Pacific Ocean like bamboo sharks, rays, and eels. Observe them at a close range in the walk-through tunnel!
The Gozo and Comino zone has a unique exhibit dedicated to the Azure window with the Xwejni salt pans, and the Blue Lagoon with crystal clear waters.
