Tour Behind the Scenes of CRETAquarium

Cost: 150€ plus the ticket price

NOT AVAILABLE AT THE MOMENT!

Accompanied children: Entrance fee, no extra charge

 

Sixty two tanks, containing more than 1,500 marine organisms and…countless questions! How are fish and sharks fed? Where does the water of the tanks come from? How do animals reproduce? How are sea-turtles cared for?

If your love and curiosity for the Mediterranean sea world are not fully satisfied after touring the tanks of Cretaquarium, you may choose to visit the behind-the-scenes area, where the Aquarium’s daily operations take place.

This is a special tour during which you can experience the technology that supports the Thalassokosmos operations, such as the preparation of feeding of the animals and tanks safety checks.

You will also see the quarantines:  namely the areas where new animals are adapted before being placed in tanks, where sick animals are cared for, and where the reproduction and growth of certain organisms takes place.

Our specially trained CRETAquarium staff will be there to answer all of your questions!
