The oceanarium is beautifully decorated, everything is very interesting and informative, and, most importantly, it is an interactive opportunity, especially for children, to learn the exciting world of the underwater inhabitants of the North Sea.

It's a really great aquarium with different tanks. These are very large, which makes the Oceanarium very special. Admission is normal for Danish standards and well worth the money. I don't understand why so many people complain here.

Wow.

Wow.
Super aquarium.
Always happy.

Very many good initiatives in relation to COVID19. Lots of selections, hand alcohol dispensers and speaker peaks
= what one can and must expect from such an established place has been done. The only minus in that context is that the planned receivables persist and are presented over the speakers. It gathers unnecessarily many people. We happened to be outside and clumsy up the facility when the seals had to be fed. Super presentation of the two animal keepers, but these could have benefited the audience from keeping their distance. When the audience incredibly cannot figure it out for themselves, they must step in with the greatest overview. Incidentally, fine relationships with families with babies, lots of changing options. We come here once or twice a year and look forward to returning in 2021.

Our daughter only has to give four stars as the big lumpfish has died since our last visit.

Beautiful large aquarium, with grandstand, space to "just" sit and watch the sea creatures glide by.
Simulator and playground are very popular.
Some "old-fashioned" communication in the form of signs.
The food in the restaurant was pretty rehearsal. Fish'n'chips with homemade remoulade. Soft fritters, a far exceeded fish and remoulade without much taste.

Nice oceanarium. However, a bit small for my taste (for the fact that it is the largest in Northern Europe). The sunfish was of course absolutely great and very impressive.
Overall, the exhibition is kept quite simple. The exhibition is not informative enough for anglers and marine experts; very general information (at least that is given in German) is given. If you have no idea about the area, the aquarium is completely sufficient :) There is a lot to discover, especially for children.

Very interesting for young and old. Many very nicely and expertly explained information about fishing, fishing, the North Sea, etc. Not only the sunfish are an attraction. Too bad for all non-Danish-speaking visitors, that in the certainly interesting shows (especially when feeding the sunfish) at least subtitles on the screens in a "understandable" language go through, so you know roughly what's going on there.

There is a spectacular aquarium, different from those I have seen in other countries. It is so great that the fish are distributed as if they were in the sea. It's worth visiting.

A great place for the whole family. Many smaller and one giant aquarium that can be admired from several levels. There are a lot of different species of fish in it. Additional attractions include a sealarium, many interactive games for children, a storm simulator on the cutter and a gastronomic offer. There is also a large souvenir shop. Convenient access and a spacious parking lot. Being in this region of Denmark is really worth a visit.

A very attractive place, especially for children, full of curiosities, multimedia games and knowledge about the North Sea. A fish feeding show in a large aquarium and a seal feeding show are must-see of the tour program.

Aplenty varieties of fish, loads of information. The central pool is 2-3 storeys high and has a large sunfish, along with other varieties. They provide an informative booklet as well. Kids would love this place. Reserve an entire day, if you wanna make the best out of it.

Modest. There are only 3 large aquariums: one at the entrance, the largest with sunfish and small sharks (very nice) and one outside with seals. Otherwise it is not very good, there is a lot of space but badly used. Suitable for families with children, given the large amounts of space and playgrounds.
They pride themselves on being the largest aquarium in northern Europe, perhaps for the safe capacity, but as the quantity and quality of the aquariums leave something to be desired.
High price.

This was a somewhat disappointing experience. The aquarium doesn't seem to be ready for such a big amount of people visiting and the orientation within the building is difficult; we left soon as it was overcrowded. I would recommend a visit outside of the peak season, which will probably be much more enjoyable. The aquarium is targeted at families with small children and there are some nice activities for them.

The North Sea Oceanarium in Hirtshals is highly recommended. It is worth his entrance fee. my expectations were exceeded. Also for children a lot is offered here. Absolute recommendation for the whole family.

Great!

A nice and well kept place. Nice Oceanarium for / for adults and children. The cafeteria was also very good with a good chance of being fed up. Nice place for many people. P-spaces fine.

Would get more stars if the entrance fee wasn't that high.
It is a unique experience - you can see all kinds of fish and there is also feeding.
However, after max. 3 hours with everything.
Is more of a half day excursion destination for Denmark vacationers :)
All in all, very satisfied.
The prices in the souvenirs shop could be a little cheaper, but the selection is quite satisfactory.
Toilets were very hygienic and the staff also spoke German.
Maybe come back again :)
