Without wearing scuba gear and flippers, you can make a fascinating journey into the deep world of marine and river inhabitants by visiting the oceanarium in Krasnodar. Galaktika is a city shopping and entertainment center where you can arrange wonderful shopping, see and take part in various fairs, exhibitions, festivals and charity events. And also wander through the breathtaking expositions of the largest oceanarium in the South of Russia.

General information

The grand oceanarium in Krasnodar, with a capacity of more than 850 tons of water basins, is equipped with a variety of latest-generation filters to constantly purify water, similar in composition to the ocean. With the help of modern air conditioning systems, a comfortable temperature is maintained. Several dozen aquariums mesmerize visitors with thousands of representatives of marine and freshwater fauna.

Sharktunnel

Of particular interest is the glass tunnel with its formidable inhabitants - sharks. Unforgettable sensations arise for visitors when blacktip sharks rush headlong right over their heads or at arm's length. Slowly swimming white-finned predators fascinate with their menacing grace. It was their relatives who in the recent past attacked Egyptian tourists. They are fed once every three days, at approximately 17:30 local time, by the aquarium's scuba diver. However, sometimes the well-being of marine life makes adjustments to the diet. This action evokes a lot of emotions in visitors, and especially in children, who, with their eyes wide open, absorb all the magic of the sea element.

Excursion opportunities

The oceanarium in Krasnodar called "Ocean Park" consists of several levels. Therefore, the most remote aquariums can be reached with only a little wandering up the stairs. Monitors above some of the larger aquariums provide constantly updated information about the local inhabitants. In addition, an experienced guide works on the territory of this water kingdom. He tells a huge number of interesting facts from the life of the underwater world. In order to listen to his entertaining narration, you just need to find a crowd of curious visitors and join the tour.

Water creative

A very interesting and bewitching sight for visitors was the observation of the parrot fish, which does not reproduce on its own in artificial conditions. The local ichthyologists found a fairly simple and creative solution: with the help of non-standard jaws, exotic color and other creative sophistications, they create the conditions for her fertilization, which is extremely amusing for others.

Water with water, lunch on schedule

The Oceanarium in Krasnodar (address: Uralskaya St., 98) has become one of the fascinating and educational local attractions. Natterera and pacu piranhas can be seen eating daily.

As an additional bonus for tourists - the organization of self-feeding of some inhabitants. Red-eared turtles and Japanese koi are somewhat lazy, but still willingly absorb the treat. By carefully listening to the announcements broadcast in the hall, you can find out which inhabitants of the oceanarium will be fed in the near future, and therefore, observe this process. Dinner of dangerous moray eels and voracious piranhas is of particular interest to adult lovers of ichthyology.

Tactile contact

In addition, aquariums are very popular, in which you can touch the living inhabitants with your hands. Of course, this entertainment is safe, since they contain only toothless carps, and not formidable predators that inhabit the oceanarium in Krasnodar.

Official website (ocean-park.ru) provides a variety of information about the network of oceanariums located in Krasnodar, Gelendzhik and Anapa, as well as about the grandiose construction in Dubai.

Entertainment variety

A multitude of marine and freshwater fish, as well as crustaceans and newts, nestled against the backdrop of waterfalls and cozy lagoons, successfully illuminated and elegantly decorated by designers.

The Oceanarium in Krasnodar offers visitors not only an inspection of aquariums, but also a cafe with impressively vivid photographs of the inhabitants of the deep sea from the most favorable angles. In the "children's hut" young artists can show their talent by drawing one of the local representatives of the underwater world. Under the reliable supervision of attentive animators, children's dreams come true, and a sweet prize becomes the final chord. The exposition of a mechanical shark that meets tourists at the entrance makes an indelible impression on some young visitors. Her jaws move ominously, and her eyes, burning with artificial fire, are capable of causing horror in underage naturalists for a short time. As a final chord, the oceanarium in Krasnodar offers the purchase of memorable gifts in the souvenir shop.

And another zoological world

The city has another oceanarium, opened much earlier, in 1996. Its expositions occupy 3 floors. The oceanarium in Krasnodar (Sadovaya, 6) can demonstrate several dozen species of fish, and a dozen and a half mammals and reptiles.

Japanese carps feel at ease in the pool on the first floor, perfectly coexisting with sturgeons, past which black and white swans swim leisurely. Martens and porcupines, mongooses and raccoons, Far Eastern wild cats can be observed in enclosures, and to view the exposition with exotic reptiles and aquarium inhabitants, you should go up a floor.

A unique and evocative spectacle delivers the emotional pleasure of enchanting visual and completely new tactile sensations when immersed in such a realistic imitation of the mysterious underwater world.
