Nice small sanctuary for seals and birds. Educational and fun at the same time. They have few beautiful aquariums too. Well worth the visit. Can spend anywhere from 1 hour to most of the day if you see and do everything.
Small but interesting spot to learn about the wild sealife around the area. It was raining heavily though so couldn't appreciate the outdoor areas as much as we wanted. Cool to hear about the seal rescue program.
As close as it gets to seeing seals... and actually happy ones too. From pups to adults, and grey seals too, even a couple of porpoises, which you can view from the aquarium and from above. Feeding times vary so those are extra popular times. Do note. Book early, and get tickets online. Showed up here not knowing we needed tickets and bookings to enter. Super good staff too!
Every time I visit Ecomare I'm having a good time. Their expositions about the sea and local wildlife are educational and fun and the animals they have on display are always nice to see. They have animals who live in the sea surrounding the island, like seals, seebirds and fish. The have species you don't see in other zoo's like Ringed seal and Harbor porpoise (which can be seen under water). During feeding hours the caretakers give information about the animals. A downside is that the exhibits for the seals and porpoise are a little bit small. They also have a rescue center for birds and seal which you can also visit.
Entrance to the park is €13,75 (2020) and in my opinion that is not a lot for what you get!
Always a fun place to explore. Much information is provided, seeing the animals up close outside is nice.
They build a small 1km hike outside which was nice. Keeping the 1.5m is challanging with many kids running around. Mind the closing time, you can easily spend 1.5 hours here if you’re interested.
