Sleep among sharks
Presentation
Practical information
Meet at the City of Arts and Sciences for an unusual night among sharks.
Welcome to Valencia in the largest aquarium in Europe (over 500 species and 42 million liters of water).
In each of the 12 buildings of the Oceanográfic, you will discover a different marine ecosystem. Belugas, penguins, turtles, rays, and of course sharks will delight both adults and children.
For those who would like to go a bit further and sleep rocked by the dance of the sharks, know that you can have the chance to spend an unusual night in the Océanos tower (the one corresponding to the Atlantic Ocean).
Bull sharks, gray sharks, sawfish, and sunfish will be your roommates!
After a dinner in the underwater restaurant, you will return to your sleeping bag and try (perhaps?) to close your eyes, unless the spectacle keeps you awake until dawn?
Please note, this activity may be subject to changes for biological, climatological, or simply organizational reasons. Do not hesitate to inquire or consult the website of the City of Arts and Sciences before planning your stay with your little family!
