Nausícaä Reviews

The new space is very oriented towards the protection of the oceans and has very (too) many screens which is damaging

Inescapable Coast. Ideal for short stays. A world underwater extraordinary largest aquarium without a doubt. A dynamic team. The only downside is that the restaurant is too factory-style, flunch and company.

Had a nice day in this super aquarium! If you are in the area, this is definitely recommended, lots of diversity, different zones, nice seal show. And the large aquarium is breathtaking in the great room! Only point of criticism, long queue, even on a weekday ... And possibly some more big fish, sharks etc would be great. But to do it once, a must anyway!

sensational, interactive and interesting tour. Walking through the well-organized site, the multitude of animals is a delight for the eyes. The only downside is the conditions of access to the site. Little or no parking of adequate size given the importance of the site to be visited. For the largest aquarium in Europe, the municipality should organize better access because I do not dare imagine the traffic jams in high season already in May period of our visit it is a hassle to find a place then in July August I let you imagine .... maybe outdoor car parks and shuttles would be better suited. This aspect has deprived you of a five star.

A bit expensive for the number of animals seen
Lots of screens and videos ... Too bad because the shark part and the sea lions show is very interesting

Interesting at all levels. Great diversity of species. Organization, explanations, gave us an excellent day.

Great day, lots of discoveries, sharks, sea lions, rays, penguins, exotic fish ... the aquariums are sublime (tunnels and large underwater bays) + very interesting exhibitions and explanations. We loved it, our daughter was delighted. Catering on site, prices are affordable but the snack is not great (very rubbery bread).

One of the most beautiful oceanographic museum in Europe!

A unique place.
We walked around like submarines, with poetic lights.

Always a delight to visit Nausicaa. The new aquarium is spectacular in its size, it still lacks "deco". It will take a little time to populate it with algae and corals that will make it magical. A downside anyway, we have not seen the hammerhead shark, despite the huge window at the end of the visit that alone justifies to pay more. Speaking of prices, free car parks are stormed in Boulogne. The paid parking of Nausicaa still extends there note.

Beautiful but the inputs are a little expensive. 2 adults and 3 children over 100th

Amazing Aquarium! There was so much to see, definitely worth a trip. You could spend a whole day in there or an hour or two buzzing round.

I loved it. What is certain is that I will do it again!

Beautiful tour. Very informative. Waow, nothing else to add

Aquarium very good but the distance is not respected the safety of the orange vests is useless

Awesome. For both adults and children Very clean.Explanation on the marine world. The sea lion show was really nice. There are free lockers (1 euros you get after) to store your belongings.

Even after several visits, I am still amazed by the contemplation of the large aquarium, we will not get tired of it! A real desire also to raise public awareness of the preservation of the sea, in a very educational way.

To do off season, if you want to enjoy it. Surely the most beautiful aquarium in France, a lot of exposure to see, provide at least 3 hours of ride.

Very nice complex, we do not see the time spent during the visit. Friendly staff.

Very beautiful aquarium.
Restoration not terrible

A beautiful place with a very welcoming staff. The tour is well done and can discover many things. I was overwhelmed by the large bay window to such an extent that I stayed a long time to contemplate all these fish swimming.

Beautiful marine center with many aquariums, the largest of which is the largest in Europe. it is about a half day to visit the whole thing. Possibility of restoration on site with a canteen with a view to the sea, the prices are correct. The arrows of the whole deserve a little more clarity, it is not always easy to be there.

Super nice damage is too expensive for a big family is not possible

Badly managed outdoor parking displayed complete with about 40 seats left

The new version m disappointed me, I expected a better. Many things to read .. poorly indicated.

A place where you can marvel, especially with the large basin where sharks and rays meet. I highly recommend it

The extension is very nice. There were pharaonic works. The establishment is accessible on its right side. There is free parking along the beach. Inside you will find something to snack on. Allow about 3 hours for the visit.

A great place and exciting but the visit can be ruined in case of high attendance (it is also a pity that there is not a changing table in each toilet)

Very nice museum! The aquariums are truly impressive and the immersion magnificent! The main exhibition is really striking, particularly by the variety of species present on the premises. The temporary exhibitions do not stand aside, really enriching and fun, also doing prevention like the one on global warming.

Really top thank you to all their team cetais really beautiful to see very good memories for us and our 3 children

Very disapointed! Much less interesting than before the works! Very expensive for the service. Pity.

Very good day out bring food as cafes get v busy. Penguins and crocodile were a little disappointing but the rest was amazing well worth a visit

Wonderful and magical for children !!! Surprising for adults !!! A universe to discover, learn and dream ...

Much less aquatic species than in the past. Repetitive vision of the same aquatic species all along the visit .. Sharks more as big as before ... This visit disappointed me some ...

Great visit of this site, we do not get bored 4 hours visit

It's a really nice place to visit, I recommend :-)
To visit it at your ease plan at least 4 hours of visit

Very nice specimen, well organized.
The only negative point, even very negative, is the world. Impossible to walk freely or watch the fish quietly.
In these times of covid, no respect for barrier gestures or distance despite the repeated efforts of staff on this point.

New amazing part! Possible to see the huge pool in many places. Friendly sea lion show.

Very nice, big, lots of things to see. Only reproach, a little labyrinthine, and the plan is not very well done ...

This is really a very interesting aquarium. It is shown a lot, is also very suitable for children. The price is good, about 26,00 .

It is with great regret that we are leaving! First of all, despite COVID 19, far too many people! There were 9 of us and the restaurant welcomes you to take your order, despite the fact that there was no longer a free table! Here we are at 9 including 5 children waiting for a table to release !! 7 audio guides and only 2 who go .... Lift and escalator broken down or you have to wait 2 hours! ... stroller in hand on the stairs! Anyway ... The names of the different fish are non-existent so well ... Guess what you're looking at! Obvious to explain to children !! I stop there .... Unfortunately when we sell ourselves to be the biggest in Europe ... Money money ... The rest after !!! We do not recommend it and will not be returning !!

Very beautiful, full of discoveries, but aquariums are sometimes inaccessible because too many people and visitors lack of civility especially towards children who are jostled to see pushed, too bad because the aquarium itself is really very good and very clean

Dear (too much) for what it is. We came to see aquariums, not animated screens. Inter active hardware exceeded. The explanatory panels are replaced by tactile terminals, so you have to queue to get the information you need. Food and drinks overpriced. Touch basins that are more pools of torture for the fish present. Paid parking, four times more expensive than paying sites on the road. Games panels outdated, some speak in francs and the graphics only take into account data until 1995. I am still looking for 1600 species for 58000 animals. Souvenir photos at 25 euros, or transfer of these same photos on digital support at 60 euros. Student staff very rude. File for ticket very poorly organized ... in short, if you have tickets to - 50% go there, otherwise keep your money.

Frankly nothing to say the new wing is super impressive, it's like being in the cinema with the entire wall overlooking the sea animals, I will come back very soon!
Super show of sea lions, we can see that you take care, it's cool!
Hate to go back !!

Beautiful showcases of the underwater world. Suitable for any type of audience, I would have liked to have more explanations written about interactive consoles.

The recent extension is really sublime, it's like being really underwater, the fish are magnificent and beautiful , I strongly advise you

Very very beautiful aquarium. Go early, after that you will wait a long time before returning

Have a nice day with your family. Not too many impeccable people. On the other hand a little expensive for a family! !!!!

A little disappointed. Dear and not up to the reputation. We saw better.

It is frankly to see. The big downside that I emit is that there was no staff to enforce the distancing for covid19 and that is very damaging and we found that there were a lot of people, (and we criticize the Puy du Fou !!). In addition, the tactile pool, hallucinating, everyone had their hands in it, taking into account the hydroalcoholic gel, I wonder what the health impact will be on fish, rays, etc ...

Very well organized, consult the map provided so as not to forget anything, if necessary it is possible to zap one or more categories ... fish, sea lions, penguins, sharks, crocodiles ... to see an impressive central aquarium and many annexes ... you will find something to snack on the spot, a very nice establishment that will satisfy young and old, I recommend ....

Very good afternoon spent in Nausicaa.
The new aquarium is huge and extends at least 1 hour the visit. The visibility of manta rays and different sharks is very good.
Small flat for the price of parking. Better to park a little further on a free parking and walk a little.

Beautiful place, not always obvious like this day when there are people but to see. Some aquariums should still have more fish I think.

Magical. The new wing fully justifies the increase in entry price. Even if it's expensive for a whole f
family, it is a gift to offer without hesitation. Young and old find their account.

Huge structure, on several floors, with a very wide variety of marine animals, different breeds of fish and sharks, seals, penguins etc ... Staff very very available and smiling. right next to the beach.

In these times of health crisis we can't really take full advantage of the place .... The closed penguin corner (under renovation I think) ...

First and last beautiful aquarium without more spaces too small for the animals (penguins, seals andc)

Very interesting exhibition for young and old. But bcp too many people. Social distancing not respectable. A bit expensive for the time it takes to make the visit.

Visit adapted for adults and children, even for the very young. Meals taken on site at the beach side bistro, sea view, everything was fresh and good. The only downside is the price for large or blended families when the children are over 12 ... it stings in the wallet.

The best aquarium i've ever visited, interactive exhibits

The entrance is relatively inaccessible to the smallest purses but it is well worth it.

Beautiful setting.
Fish very clearly visible.
The problem is the price ...
