Museo de La Ciencia y El Cosmos

Lovely place with a lot of very interesting exhibits and things for kids to try. A number though were not working properly and it is a shame that they haven't put any of the information in other languages (we did OK but would have helped the kids, there is a QR code you can scan at the start but understandably the kids just wanted to get stuck in). There is also a telescope that there was no information on or interaction with. Would recommend but a few missed opportunities.

A small but well-designed museum, ideal for families with children. It offers interactive physics exhibits that keep kids engaged, plus a planetarium show explaining the formation of the universe and the Earth. A short, educational, and enjoyable visit. A good place to spend some time on a rainy day.

A great experience, for kids and adults. Really interesting and highly interactive display of human achievements, technology, physics, space... spent an entire afternoon there. Entrance fee is cheap, they also have a children playroom with even more interactive stuff. Highly recommended.

The building itself is beautiful, but the experience was disappointing. Many exhibits were broken, several halls were closed. With better maintenance and multilingual information, this place could be much better.

We spent 3 hours in this museum with our 6-year-old daughter, and it still wasn’t enough. It’s very interactive — you can press buttons and touch almost everything. The museum has internet access, so anything written in Spanish can easily be translated into any language. There is no café inside, but there is a vending area where you can buy drinks, hot coffee, and snacks.

It is not too dissimilar from many other “science museums” oriented towards a younger audience. That said, our kids loved it, of course, and requested 5 stars, even if some exponats were out of order. The open terrace with solar clock and real radiotelescope deserves attention, as do the information on guanche script, the Santa Cruz oil refinery model, and the seatide calculator.

Nice museum with children or not. Spent an hour easily only for 5€ per adult. 3,5€ if you have a group >8 people.

What a great place, with lots of interactive exhibits. The volcano exhibit was cleverly put together and with curtains to walk through made the suspense even better. You can get translations of what you are seeing and audio guide if you sign onto their WiFi, good to remember earphones if you struggle translating the Spanish. I got lost in the maze of mirrors, lots of geology, physics and astronomy thrown in. Biology and Chemistry take a bit of a back seat, but that suited me. Great value at 5€ for an adult.
