Sevilla Aquarium sits beside the Guadalquivir River at Muelle de las Delicias, near María Luisa Park. Its route leads through marine habitats from the Atlantic to the jungle, with displays of local river fish, tropical species, jellyfish, caimans and anacondas. The main tank is the standout: walk around it and through the tunnel to see sharks, turtles and rays from different angles, including overhead. Conservation information appears throughout the exhibits, and the layout works well for families with children.
An underwater route through Seville
Sevilla Aquarium is at Muelle de las Delicias, beside the Guadalquivir River and close to María Luisa Park. The route moves through two floors, taking visitors from Atlantic marine life to a jungle habitat with fish from the Guadalquivir. Displays also follow the idea of Magellan’s voyage around the world.
The aquarium’s layout gradually leads visitors deeper into the building. Large tanks begin at floor level in places, so children can see the animals without needing to look up. The route also lets you view aquatic life from more than one angle.
The main tank and tunnel
The large central tank is a highlight, with sharks, sea turtles and rays. Walk around it to see the animals from different sides, then pass through the tunnel, where a transparent ceiling brings the fish into view overhead. Some viewing points bring you close to the glass.
Jellyfish have their own display, with several kinds and colours. Other exhibits include caimans, frogs and anacondas, alongside tropical fish. The range gives the visit variety beyond the main shark tank.
Conservation information
Information about environmental protection appears throughout the aquarium. Some displays include IUCN ratings, which provide context about the conservation status of species. The exhibits are presented in Spanish and English.
The aquarium’s route and displays make it a family-friendly stop, but there is enough variety for adults to explore as well. A visit of around 90 minutes is a useful starting point; time can stretch if you pause to read the information or watch the animals.
