Museo Marítimo del Cantábrico

It's a very good value for money. Aquarium on the bottom floor and amazing view from the top balcony. The floors are separated in to different time scales and ages of see exploration and see harbouring. The kids run thru it but did not been bored. Lacks a lot of English translation but Google lense helped at that part. Staff was very kind and considerate and the ticket prices are very reasonable. Awesome to hide from scorching heat.

We really enjoyed this museum and aquarium. There are 3 main sections and each was excellent. The history part had intricate models to illustrate all elements of the development of the fishing and boat building industries. The aquarium was amazing with a wide arrange of fish and aquatic life, really beautiful and incredible to see. The third section was natural history with the feature point of the immense whale skeletons. Would thoroughly recommend. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

Amazing museum. I wasn’t sure what to expect going in, but the marine floor is absolutely breathtaking. There is even an aquarium!

Worth a visit! I enjoyed this museum a lot due to the many beautiful exhibits & topics that were divided into floors, but connected by the maritime theme. I would have needed more than 1 + 1/2 hours but that's because I took a lot of photos & videos & it was closing time. You start at the top with a viewing platform that shows you the ocean underneath the museum, the beach & the opposite coast (& more). There is also the coffee shop of the museum. Downstairs you find the main exhibition that was larger than expected & on the bottom floor you find the aquarium. There is also a small museum shop & lockers for luggage. If you're interested in ships, aquariums, fishing, the ocean, maritime history etc, then go for it. I'd recommend it 👍

An October visit to this brilliant museum experience. The history of Spain's maritime ventures are there for the visitors to see. Beautiful scale models of sailing ships of the past to recent times. Marine life and many other aspects of the Spanish seafaring history then and now are displayed in such a way to make it a wonderful experience for the visitors . I will return.

Great little museum and aquarium. The kids really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the less than friendly attendants followed them around shushing them. No cafe, but you weren’t allowed to eat your own food on the plentiful tables on their lovely terrace. Overall, kids loved it. Staff were terrible.

A lovely museum! the top floor has a panoramic view and a cafe, beneath is a floor full of history. The general information was in Spanish, French and English. Then there's a floor of aquatic animals with the aquarium. The aquarium is quite big for being in a museum, I loved it. Overall recommend to visit to learn some history and watch some fish (they have jellyfish, starfish and small sharks!!)

Really interesting museum on marine life and fishing, there is also an aquarium which was my favorite part ! 🐟🐡🩵
