Benalmádena's Sea Life Centre is the first walk-through underwater park on the Costa del Sol, which takes you on an amazing stroll along the seabed. You pass aquatic species from the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans and the Red Sea. It is a fascinating voyage of discovery for the whole family. From starfish to stingrays and sharks, and many more exotic species, you can study this fascinating marine life close up. With over 30 tanks in nine different rooms, you see creatures living in a reproduced natural habitat, from above, below and alongside. The journey is unforgettable, especially the turtles, sharks and moray eels, as well as colourful tropical fish and seahorses. There are also crabs, jellyfish and octopuses, and much more.
Sick and injured sea creatures are nursed back to health here and a new exhibition features marine lifeforms dangerous to humans in their undersea habitats.
There are also feeding demonstrations, special presentations and other themed attractions, as well as a terrace bar with excellent views of the port. A recent addition is a mini golf course where the obstacles are models of seahorses and sharks.
The centre has baby changing facilities and toilets for the disabled.
Open all year from 10am. Adults: 9.5 Euros Children: 7 Euros Children under 4 - free. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
