Updated on October 6, 2026

The Aquarium de Paris, beneath the Trocadéro gardens, costs €27.50 (€20.50 for ages 3 to 12) and opens every day from 9:30 to 19:00; metro Trocadéro or Iéna. Operated under the name Cinéaqua, it is one of the largest aquariums in Europe, a short walk from the Eiffel Tower. On several underground levels, it presents tanks devoted to French freshwater fish, tropical reefs, sharks and a particularly photogenic jellyfish room.

The jellyfish room
