Het Arsenaal Aquarium Review

Not much.
Pair of pirate dolls for the little kids and some aquariums.
In 45 minutes we were suddenly back at the exit. Apparently we had had everything.

Very expensive for what you get, especially if you already have older children.

Stroke 2 stars for the fish. Entry overpriced. Children's climbing paradise too small and too old. Main attraction out of order .. still no price reduction ... no more times ... without the fish you are through in 25 minutes.

Not worth the price. There are better aquariums and better playgrounds.

Had a nice day in the arsenal. Only a little more tension is desirable. And some things were outdated

Price I found too much for what I got. I found this incomprehensible and impure. Gr, pure

Very nice pirate amusement park covered with a view tower over the sea.

Very nice experience and friendly staff. We were able to stroke fish and we were also allowed to put our hand in the water like a fish spa. Was nice. They also gave all kinds of fish food, which was nice to see! If you take the elevator to the tower you look out over the sea and Vlissingen. Breathtaking view. We have nice and beautiful memories of this. Thanks! Grtjes from Belgium, Pascal and Tina

For children under 10 a great experience. For adults to fall asleep and quite expensive.

Super cozy cafe / restaurant where you can drink something but also eat delicious food for a nice price, staff are always friendly, spare ribs are one of the favorites :)

Have fun for the kids! Very great view from above.
Bit expensive, card only from Dutch (despite everything is translated)

Nice to look at. But too expensive for what is offered. But if you take the combination ticket with the ferry, it's okay. In no case there the normal soups eat, if only the fresh soup. The one in the photo is the kip soup (chicken soup).

They are allowed to clean out their aquariums and other windows. That was a shame. Nice in itself, but maintenance could be better. The pirate den was also quite scary for the little ones. Playground is a big plus.

Very nice entertainment with the kids, and an educational aquarium

Nice, but too expensive. 58 euros for two adults and two children (5 and 7). The pirate cave is not suitable for children who quickly get scared. Skeletons, scary figures and noises terrified our children a lot.

A bit tired looking. Not that much has been renewed since 2000ish. Best part definitely the fish tanks with some great specimens such as the cuttlefish.

Beautiful aquarium area, which is certainly a highlight for children. The pirate exhibit is nice, but rather superficial.

A great destination for an excursion when the weather is not so great.

It was good, the children liked it. The prices a bit too high.

Mag wat gemoderniseerd worden. Maar voor de kleintjes veel indrukken.

Well, it's getting old and the entry is definitely too high for that.

Very nice for the kids. Price is really too high. 58 euros for 2 adults and two children is really over the top. Lookout was pretty cool. We would not go there again.

Very expensive and not suitable for children under six years.

In itself it is fine, but it is especially very dark throughout the building. Ordered sandwiches for lunch. These were served almost frozen. After returning the first time, they returned cold. They were then put in the microwave. They were warm then. They stayed very demonstratively with us to see if we thought they were warm enough. For the children, the play equipment and the petting fish were fun.

Nice museum to visit with the children. Nice viewpoint over the Westerschelde.

Fish and aquarium are great, stroking rays is fun and there are lots of fish to see.
The pirate part was very disappointing, many things did not work and other things were designed purely for kid's amusement.
50% class, 50% trash. Too bad.

Nice with smaller children. Fantastic view in the tower over the Westerschelde!

Pity about the money. Very outdated and neglected. The only thing that works really well is the entrance box

Old mess, far too expensive! You are out in an hour and the show is really flut

Totally overpriced, neither a real aquarium nor a real playground.

Super staff, very friendly and really take the time to explain e.e.a and to show you the way. Nice pirate upstairs who got along well with the little ones, so he immediately thawed and had a very nice day. Also stroking the rays ect is certainly a fun experience to experience !! Thank you!! Greeting Jp.

After we enjoyed our visit 2 years ago, this time it was very disappointing. Several interesting things that we had seen at the time have disappeared. No more nautilus and no more parrots. The pirate show replaced by a repetitive film, leaving only a small aquarium and ditto indoor playground.

It is very nice and interesting. There are great opportunities for children to play. The story of the pirates, including those of today, is told. There is a lot to look at.
But the aquariums are the most beautiful. Especially the petting pools. Yes, you can pet rays and cat sharks. And much more to see what lives in the North Sea with us.

Very much less fun than in the past very unfortunate.

Very friendly welcome. Pirate section was a bit disappointing. But the aquariums were fun. Especially the fish that eat your dead skin cells (our children called them kiss fish) loved our children! All in all a nice trip, but due to the pirate part 3 stars.

Overpriced. You can do so much more with the pirate theme than is done here. Musty stuffy, poorly lit. Absolutely not corona proof (including visitors). Went there due to bad weather. Aquariums are still nice, the ship simulator turns out to be the most fun attraction, but then again too exciting for my daughter of 4 (not announced anywhere). Well

Were the only .. catering closed and simulator was not running, tower in maintenance so closed ...
So outrageous that I am. Have asked for money back

Great aqua zoo with touch and real discovery trip for children. If one can only recommend, especially on a rainy day, it only feels - as so often in NL - relatively expensive. Therefore only the 4 stars.

Fun pirates and super nice aquarium and a nice opportunity for the kids and a nice brasserie super nice

Maybe time for renewal? Furthermore, a nice day trip

Unfortunately it was a bit disappointing, restaurant upstairs was closed and the tower was not open, the theater for the position was also very mediocre and the price of the ticket was far too high!

The kids like it. Even I have been there 3-4 times.

Still has some nostalgic charm, some attractions are now obsolete, or no longer functional.
There is an urgent need for new impulses!

In the meantime, the children's department has been closed at the top and, so to speak, only released a little below. The adult section is secured by a barrier. Despite the huge prices inside (vending machine is addictive) it is a good place to spend a day in the rain.

The view from the tower is breathtaking. You can stroke the rays, see exotic fish, dive into the life of the pirates and the kids can climb great.

It is really nice there, only the entrance is too expensive. For half the price it would have been enough, especially because children from 3 years have to pay the full price. Nevertheless, we liked it very much and it was fun !,

An informative day out. Unfortunately too focused on the little ones. A little more information for the parents, more depth. and some less repetitive info of the same nature and it would be a big 5 stars

Everything the pirate heart desires! Very nice for children! Unfortunately, entry is a bit too expensive at just under 14 per person ...

Best children's program for sunniest weather like today. And manicure is on top. And petting. And torpedo launching sounds. And and and...
Not really cheap but very helpful!

Voted "best attraction in Zeeland 2018". Well, I hope it isn't. Okay, it's a fun place with aquaria, a fish-petting basin and those funny little fish that knibble your hands, but the place is kind of worn out and old-fashioned. My kids had a great time and we'll probably be back. Still, the pirate displays were quite tacky and the show was uninspired. Food: inside the museum it's horrible (bad coffee, undercooked fries) but the attached cafe is allright.

Too expensive for what is on offer. The horror area was unfortunately already too much for our kids and the simulator was also a little boring. You can also save yourself the pirate show, someone sings after playback on a small stage ...
The indoor play area was too fast for our children.
However, we found positive:
- nice staff
- Children were allowed to make a rope
- Children got balloon swords
- beautiful large aquariums
therefore also 3 stars

Maybe not very up to date, but despite that nice (for children) to visit. Plenty to see and do: marine aquarium, pirate ship and crow's nest. We had a lot of fun and our son of 5 too.

Bad no service 3 stupid chicks behind the bar who are only busy with their phone

Recommended for children under 6 years. Admission is simply too expensive for what you can explore. The view from the tower is very nice.

Because the Salsa has made it such a great evening. The food was really good, we were Tienen with us, the evening could not go wrong

Nice to stroke rays but the 13.95 not really worth it

A bit expensive, as there is no discount for toddlers.

Authentic historical place of colonial/industrial era

It's great fun for the kids, my little one was in a real pirate vibe and now he's 12, he still goes there with friends!

With my grandson Anthony every time we are in Holland, a great experience .......

For children and on rainy days certainly ok. Entrance fees are measured at the top end.

Leuk en interessant. In de toren kun je over de stad en zee kijken. Alleen die kinderlijke muziek hierbij vind ik onnodig. De visaquariums zijn mooi. Met een rolstoel is het niet altijd even makkelijk. Er is een lift dat kan helpen.
