The aquarium in Bergen sits on a promontory at the mouth of the harbour and is among the largest facilities of its kind in northern Europe. Its tanks and outdoor pools house fish, seals, penguins and other marine and aquatic life, with a focus on species from Norwegian coastal waters as well as tropical exhibits. Feeding sessions and displays make it a popular destination for families, while the seaside location adds views over the fjord approaches. Combining education with entertainment, it has long been a fixture of the city's attractions.
