Alexandria Aquarium — Aquarium in Alexandria
Alexandria Aquarium and its collection
Alexandria Aquarium, opened in 1930, is an aquarium in الاسكندرية, Egypt.
The aquarium serves a scientific and research role alongside its tourist function, and falls under the National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries. It is a specialist centre for studying marine organisms and recording the biodiversity of the Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Nile.
What the venue says
- the aquarium itself has limited snack or dining options inside
- On-site parking space right at the aquarium is typically quite limited due to its tight urban coastal location, so street parking or walking from nearby areas is common.
- Being a historic, older facility, modern accessibility accommodations (such as ramps or elevators for wheelchairs) may be limited.
