Excellence
State-of-the-art aquarium and infrastructure, with qualified and dedicated biologists.
A strong relationship
This is a relationship between two institutions based on a common denominator – The Ocean.
It is about the richest and closest possible involvement between our two organizations that makes it possible to turn mutual benefits into a global advantage.
These welfares derive from notoriety and credibility with the successful development of the activities of both institutions and given their coincidence and complementarity.
Oceanário de Lisboa is one of the best ocean windows in the world.
