The Madeira Aquarium, nestled in the coastal town of Porto Moniz, offers an intimate look at the rich marine life of the Atlantic Ocean.
Housed in a historic building that once served as a coastal fortress, the aquarium is home to over 90 native species, from colorful fish to majestic sharks. Each tank replicates natural habitats, providing visitors with an educational journey through the island’s underwater ecosystems. Informative displays explain the ecological roles of various species and highlight the environmental challenges they face. The aquarium also hosts educational activities, including guided tours and workshops for children, making it an ideal destination for families. Exploring the Madeira Aquarium is a unique opportunity to appreciate the island's biodiversity without diving into the ocean depths.
