About Aquarium de La Réunion
Set on a small artificial islet in the marina of Saint-Gilles-les-Bains, on the sunny west coast of Réunion, the Aquarium de La Réunion invites visitors to discover the rich underwater world of the island's coral lagoon and the deep drop-offs beyond. Opened in 2000, its route begins among the gentle, colourful fish of the shallow reef and leads gradually into darker, deeper waters, ending with the ocean's larger predators — reef sharks and rays gliding through a great tank. Along the way, clear displays reveal the fragile beauty and ecology of the Indian Ocean reefs that fringe the island. Compact, well-designed and ideal for families, the Aquarium de La Réunion is a fine way to understand and admire the marine life that makes Réunion's coastline so special.
