Huge queue, no information in any other language than Polish. Very crowdy. The seals are cute though, but the environment not too attractive. Acceptance/ticket coin system is also very crazy - only 5zl coins accepted. Yes, there is a changing mashine but can also accept only limited types of banknotes (10 and 20 if remember correctly). A bit of dissapointment after Gdansk zoo.

Good place to visit if in Hel, quite interesting and makes you think about amount of plastic waste that end up in our oceans damaging and hurting not just seals.

Amazing place! When in Hel, this is one of the must see destinations. It has nothing to do with SeaWorld and similar establishments, it’s a scientific station operating under Gdańsk University. The entry fee is very low (5zł ~ 1€) and it’s for a good cause, please do visit when here. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely awful, just been there waste of a day. No english speaking, 4 seals and the water was so dirty, you couldn't see anything any way. English speaking people avoid at all costs. So disappointed, we asked for help and all they gave us was a booklet with very little information but it had a donation requests

Poor animals, dying there,no one cares...people only want to see a show, which is not even there. Just release them back to the sea :(( Please, better stay off this place. You won't see anything and you just support horrible organisation, stealing your money.

Great place to visit, especially with children

Place that exists solely to spread knowledge and help for Baltic sea seals. To make it entertaining for people that would like to learn and see those animals they have smal exhibition and 2-3 times a day feeding with some commentary. It is extremely cheap so if you are around definitely worth a visit.

Cute and lovely Seals. Sanctuary is right at the beach. Show is great, come early to get best view.

Very cute seals, we got to see them eating and making tricks.

There was a long queue and once we got inside there was really nothing to see, my daughter and I saw two seals and that was it the whole time we were there.

The main place to visit while at Hel peninsula. The seals here are magnificent. Although, almost all of them are seals that were rescued. In normal conditions seals live freely on the Polish coast.

I would give 100 stars, if I could!

Interesting place if you haven't seen seals before. Really lacks information in English. Entrance is two 5zl coins you put into machine (automated). Next to the entrance you will find a machine which will chane 10 and 20 notes into 5zl coins. No possibility to pay with a card. Go during feeding time - seals are active and do show some nice tricks.

Nice place with show of animal feeding. Read entry guide well to be prepared for enter. It is recommended to arrive earlier if you want to see the show.

Quite na interesting place with a captivating history,good for approximately 30min visit when you are lucky to come across the time of deal feeding,definitely worth visiting but i guess IT could be a big bigger and more engaging.

Nice local attraction, I was lucky to be here during a food (fish) distribution time, so all these great animals came up ;)

Not bad not good. Mixed feelings....We would like to visit Hel again, but not the visit to the seal rescue station is under a question for sure....

The best attraction in Hel! Definitely worth visiting, I visit it every time I am nearby.

Visit Fokarium!!! Amazing place...go there in the morning to enjoy seals (fokas) - it is empty and calm...during summer and sunny days it is absolutely full of people and tourist...

Very good place to visit, a must if you are in Hel. But check when the feeding is. It's several times a day, definitely at 2 and 4.30. Good to know and see these sea animals. The entrance is really cheap, only 5 pln. It's possible to buy some souvenirs and support the centre. Recommend

Wonderful snd intresting presentation, you can buy in the shop different items and in the same time donate yhe rescue station.

Amazing lovely wonderful. Nice to learn something.

Nice experience, especially for kids

Grilled fish and vegetables were amazing. Mild fish soup tasted like a little bit of fish was added to chicken soup from a can. Location was an A+!

Nice place, perfect for kids and adults.
