La Rochelle Aquarium.

Quai Louis Prunier

In the heart of the city, opposite the Old Harbour, it is one of the biggest private aquariums in Europe. A 2-hour visit will transport you to the heart of the world's different oceans.

On the second floor, overlooking the Seagoing Yacht Basin, you will find the "Café de l'Aquarium". You may go there to enjoy the view and the culinary delights after your visit or even without visiting the aquarium at all. The decoration is tropical and you will find organic produce on the menu, beside more traditional French fare.
