We came to see the seals which are outside and a free visitor attraction and then decided to go into the Aquarium as well. The entry price of €9 for a family ticket is good value for money even though the Aquarium itself is quite small. We spent about 30min in there and the kids certainly enjoyed the various Baltic and tropical fish.

It is a small aquarium. What is there is neat however you will be I done within 30 minutes. Well worth the 3 euro admission.

(Translated by Google) Between two and three stars. Since the entrance fee is not very high, it is ok as a destination. However, there is not that much to see and as a visitor one has the impression that the aquariums could be cleaner. Unfortunately, the toilet facilities were closed due to Corona. The promenade, however, offers a nice place to linger. (Original) Zwischen zwei und drei Sterne. Da der Eintrittspreis nicht sehr hoch ist, ist es als Ausflugsziel ok. Allerdings gibt es nicht sooo viel zu sehen und als Besucher hat man den Eindruck, die Aquarien könnten sauberer sein. Leider waren die WC Anlagen wegen Corona geschlossen. Die Promenade bietet allerdings einen schönen Platz zum verweilen.

Small, but cute aquarium. Only 3 euros to visit. Take a few minutes of your time and see what animals can be found in the area and beyond. There are several seals to see as well too.

a cosy aquarium directly on the see.. suitable for kids

So much to see. Very good work being done. Saw species of sea animals I had never seen before. All very interesting and beautiful.

Quite nice for what it is. Small, cozy enclosure. You can see the whole exhibition in 15 minutes at a VERY leisurely pace. Extremely affordable at the low entrance cost of only €3. Otherwise you can watch the seals from the outside at no cost.

The aquarium itself is not a very grand adventure. But at 3€ you should probably not expect Sea World. Go there to support their work, or just enjoy the sea lions outside for free. Feeding on fridays, I believe

The place is attractive we had so much fun and my kids really enjoyed it. Just the the space is not big.

The place is unique for getting informed about the oceans and seas. Three seals are free to see in the aquarium. It enjoys your children.

Nice aquarium, but it is really small - so don't be disappointed. Clean and nice place with big cool windows. Takes about 20 minutes to come thorugh if you take your time with each window. Really not expensive, so it is worth to visit if you are in the area - but don't drive though Germany visit it.

A small town aquarium you only have to visit once or two...but the better part is the seal feeding two times a day in certain time so better hurry not to miss it...would like some souvenirs or leaflets for the geomar research activities too!

Small but nice, only €3 worth while for the 15-20 minutes (seals outside are free to see)

Good place to visit with children.

I study and work here .. So I love it and the seals are just amazing :)

(Translated by Google) Very lekker, clean, beautiful view, friendly staff ... (Original) Sehr lekker, sauber, schöner Ausblick, freundliches Staff...

(Translated by Google) Per person 3 € entry. It was very easy to walk through. The information boards are poorly lit and barely legible. The visitor toilet is closed. (Original) Pr Person 3€ Eintritt. Man ist recht schnell durchgelaufen.Die Info-Tafeln sind teilweise schlecht ausgeleuchtet und kaum lesbar.Das Besucher WC ist geschlossen.

(Translated by Google) Small but nice. Price totally okay. Feed the seals twice a day (Original) Klein aber fein. Preis voll in Ordnung. Fütterung der Seehunde 2x am Tag

(Translated by Google) Price / performance ratio is great! For 3 € there is a lot to see ☺️ Unfortunately, some of the pools were missing the labels for du Fischen. (Original) Preis/Leistung ist top! Für 3€ gibt es einiges zu sehen ☺️ Leider fehlten bei ein paar Becken die Beschriftungen zu du Fischen.

(Translated by Google) Small but very informative aquarium, entry for adults € 3.00. (Original) Kleines aber sehr informatives Aquarium, Eintritt für Erwachsene 3,00 €.

(Translated by Google) Very educational aquarium / museum about many species of fish and other marine life, especially seals. However, in my opinion it is a bit small, even if the entrance fees for it are more than reasonable. (Original) Sehr lehrreiches Aquarium/Museum über viele Arten von Fischen und anderen Meeresbewohnern, insbesondere auch Seehunde. Allerdings ist es meines Erachtens etwas klein, wenn auch die Eintrittspreise dafür mehr als angemessen sind.

Another must to visit in Kiel. We went on a Saturday, which I would not recommend. The aquarium was shocker block full with kids and parents, as it would be. Maybe regulating the visitors on busy days might be an option. Pick a quiet time, not on a weekend or during holidays. Nice displays, at €3 euro a bargain. The seals are lovely, however the tank is pretty bare and full of green algae.

The aquarium is small in size, which might appeal to some as a quick visit, especially if you're already in the vicinity. It has a certain charm and can be enjoyable for children. However, its size and offerings might not make it a primary destination for a day out. Also, it's important to note that they only accept cash payments.

The GEOMAR Aquarium in Kiel was a bit underwhelming. The exhibits were somewhat limited, and the overall experience didn't live up to my expectations. While there were interesting marine species, the aquarium lacked the wow factor that I was hoping for. It might be okay for a quick visit, but if you're expecting a truly captivating aquarium experience, you might want to explore other options.

very small but cute and lots to see.

The Geomar aquarium in Kiel is a must-visit for anyone interested in marine life. The aquarium is informative, affordable, and fun. Visitors can learn about the diversity of marine creatures and their habitats. The aquarium is home to a variety of marine species, including fish, sharks, and sea turtles. The exhibits are well-maintained and provide an immersive experience. The aquarium is also a great place to take kids, as there are plenty of fun facts to be found. Overall, the Geomar aquarium is a great place to spend a few hours and learn about the wonders of the ocean.

Small place, but very interesting )

It's small but interesting. The seals are outside and can be seen without entry. A good way to spend 20-30 minutes.

GEOMAR is a world renowned institution and so is their research. Having said that, the aquarium is quite educational and the seals which can seen from outside the aquarium premises are a delight to watch. Especially during feeding times

Small aquarium with cheap entrance fee, nice for kids

Loved it. a very special aquarium. Very cheap ticket

Nice aquarium, small but well presented.

Tiny aquarium, something like 20 small to medium-sized tanks. It is a nice experience, however it lasts exactly 7 minutes (that's what she said). If it was more than 3 euros entry, I would have been upset, but for this price the experience was positive overall.

Not good price, kids crying everywere. The cashier smoke in the room. The cashier was very disrespectful. Like 10 boxes of fishes. 0/10 peace out.

3 euro for wonderful creatures. It is small, but the main attraction are the seals. They have a huge space and they can be seen from the outside of aquarium. If you come only for the seals, it is not necessary to buy the ticket. They are adorable, and a lot of people are watching them. You will maybe have to wait for them to show up behind the glass as they are always moving.

for a paid aquarium it is an uninteresting place!

good place for kids

Great place to visit. Wish they had better pool facilities for the seal like in Tromsø with Polaria. Didnt feel like the seal had a good quality of life

A decent aquarium with lots of fish. Nice fishtanks. A bit small but worth the low price. CASH ONLY!

(Translated by Google) Evaluation within the framework of the extremely low admission price. Certainly a good pastime for half an hour. Very nice that you can watch the seals right from the promenade. (Original) Bewertung im Rahmen des extrem günstigen Eintrittspreises. Für einen halbe Stunde sicherlich ein guter Zeitvertreib. Sehr schön, dass man direkt von der Promenade den Seehunden zusehen kann.

(Translated by Google) Worth a visit for everyone. (Original) Für jeden einen Besuch wert.

(Translated by Google) Not huge but great (Original) Nicht riesengroß aber prima

Beautiful fishes and good company

(Translated by Google) Extremely small and intimate, but the price of the entrance fee and our expectations also corresponded to this. The children had time to look at everything and study a bit. As far as one goes around, it is an interesting place that is worth a visit. (Original) Extrémně malé a komorní, ale i tomu odpovídala cena vstupného i naše očekávání. Děti měly čas si vše prohlédnout a trochu nastudovat. Pokud jde člověk kolem, je to zajímavé místo, které stojí za návštěvu.

(Translated by Google) Small but nice. Gladly again. (Original) Klein aber fein. Gern wieder.

(Translated by Google) Price-performance ratio is right. A short detour from the harbor promenade to the aquarium is worthwhile. There is also a pool that is set up like a pool in the harbor - very clear and definitely great for explaining a lot to children (Original) Preis Leistungs Verhältnis stimmt. Ein kurzer Abstecher von der Hafenpromenade ins Aquarium lohnt sich. Es gibt auch ein Becken, das aufgebaut ist wie ein Becken im Hafen - sehr anschaulich und bestimmt super, um Kindern einiges zu erklären

(Translated by Google) Small but nice, we were lucky and the shark and rays tank was being fed at the time we were there. Informative panels hung everywhere which was very nice. (Original) Klein aber fein, wir hatten Glück und es wurde zum Zeitpunkt als wir da waren gerade das Hai und Rochen Becken gefüttert. Überall hingen informative Tafeln war sehr nett.

(Translated by Google) Tiny (Original) Sehr klein

(Translated by Google) Nice experience! Nicely designed aquarium in which you can marvel at the underwater fauna. Length of stay, depending on the situation, certainly less than an hour. However, the promenade also had a lot to offer. If you feel like it, you can also take the scheduled ferry. (Original) Schönes Erlebnis! Nett gestaltetes Aquarium, in welchem man die Tierwelt unter Wasser bestaunen kann. Aufenthaltsdauer, je nach dem, sicher unter einer Stunde. Allerdings hatte die Promenade auch noch einiges zu bieten. Wem es danach gelüstet, kann zusätzlich noch mit dem Linienfährschiff übersetzen.

(Translated by Google) great for kids (Original) super für Kinder

(Translated by Google) Although it is not very big, there is quite a bit to see. (Original) Obwohl es nicht sehr groß ist, gibt es einiges zu sehen.

(Translated by Google) Great fun for the whole family! Really nice. (Original) Für die ganze Familie ein toller Spaß! Wirklich schön.

I expected it to be much smaller based on the reviews. Yes it is small but it's a lovely little aquarium! And the staff is super nice! :) 5*

it is not big,15 minutes you can finish all of it but it is also not that expensive, so do not expect so much from it.

A small but varied and interesting aquarium to visit, costs 2 to 3 Euros per person, good for children who are interested in sea life, is on the promenade on the Kiel side near the Landtag. Sometimes the Geomar ocean research ships are moored outside and the ferries pass by infront. Dogs not allowed inside. Outside there is an open pool with seals to look at. Parking is possible nearby at ferry terminal within easy walking distance.

Small, but many beautiful fishes

Good place to spend with your kids an family. Relatively small exposition but of an involving experience.

Very small but very clean and loads to read and see

Very small and a little boring. No information in english only German

(Translated by Google) Small but nice (Original) Klein aber fein

Cute little aquarium with just two rooms. I would have expected more detailed information about the fish from a science center. I was a little disappointed that not all of their signs were in place or legible.

(Translated by Google) Small but nice. Great flair. Informative and cute seals. (Original) Klein aber fein. Tolles Flair. Informativ und süße Seehunde.

(Translated by Google) I already knew it was small, but it was even smaller than expected. We like to watch fish and like to support ocean research, that's why I still give it 4 stars. The lobster was very entertaining. We were maybe 30 min. inside. The seals cannot be seen from the inside, only from the outside (freely accessible to all pedestrians). The toilets are completely closed due to Corona - difficult with small children! (Original) Ich wusste schon, dass es klein ist aber es war noch kleiner als erwartet. Wir beobachten gerne Fische und unterstützen gerne die Ozeanforschung, deshalb gebe ich trotzdem 4 Sterne. Der Hummer war sehr unterhaltsam. Wir waren vielleicht 30 min. drinne. Die Robben kann man von innen gar nicht sehen, nur von außen (frei zugänglich für alle Fußgänger). Die Toiletten sind wegen Corona komplett geschlossen - mit kleinen Kindern schwierig!

(Translated by Google) Kind (Original) Nett

(Translated by Google) The size of the building suggests more, yet informative and inexpensive. The seals also showed up. For families with children, I recommend seeing dog feeding at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., otherwise it is more fortunate to observe the longer. (Original) Die Gebäudegröße lasst mehr erwarten, trotzdem informativ und preiswert. Die Seehund haben sich auch mal blicken lassen. Für Familien mit Kindern empfehle ich die Sehhundefütterung 10 und 14 Uhr, sonst ist das eher Glück die länger zu beobachten.

(Translated by Google) Small but great to go with children. Very friendly staff. Super cheap ticket: € 9 / family (Original) Pequeño pero genial para ir con niños. Personal muy amable. Entrada super económica: 9€/familia

(Translated by Google) Small but nice. (Original) Klein, aber fein.

(Translated by Google) Small but nice. Entertaining and informative. For just € 3 entrance fee, you can see beautiful fish for an hour and learn something. Also very entertaining for children. (Original) Klein aber fein. Unterhaltsam und informativ. Für lediglich 3 € Eintrittspreis kann man eine Stunde lang schöne Fische sehen und was lernen. Auch für Kinder sehr unterhaltsam.

(Translated by Google) Expected more (Original) Hatte mehr erwartet

(Translated by Google) You can get in for very little money and have several pools with different sea creatures to explore. However, the aquarium is smaller than I first thought ... Instead, you can see sharks and rays in a basin and a gallery of deep-sea inhabitants is reminiscent of some science fiction films. (Original) Man kommt für ganz ganz kleines Geld rein und hat mehrere Becken mit unterschiedlichen Meeresbewohner zum Erkunden. Das Aquarium ist allerdings kleiner als ich erst dachte... Dafür sieht man in einem Becken Haie und Rochen und eine Gallerie Tiefseebewohner erinnert an so manchen Science-Fiction-Film.

(Translated by Google) A really very cute little aquarium. Unfortunately, the windows of some aquariums were very dirty when we visited ... Still, I like to stop by every few years. (Original) Ein wirklich sehr kleines süßes Aquarium. Leider waren auch bei unserem Besuch die Scheiben mancher Aquarien sehr verdreckt... Dennoch komme ich gern alle paar Jahre vorbei.

(Translated by Google) Great info, chic rays! (Original) Tolle Infos, schicke Rochen!

(Translated by Google) Okay. Very nice for children and adults too. A handful of aquariums inside. The jellyfish are very cool. Outside the seals. There is action when it is feeding time. Prices are okay. Tip for the coming winter: there are free lockers for storing jackets. (Original) Ganz okay. Für Kinder und auch die Erwachsenen ganz nett. Drinnen eine Handvoll Aquarien. Sehr cool sind die Quallen. Draußen die Seehunde. Aktion herrscht dort, wenn Fütterungszeit ist. Preise sind okay. Tip für den kommenden Winter: es gibt kostenfreie Schließfächer zum Jacken verstauen.

(Translated by Google) Due to Covid19 like us and MANY others queuing for a long time as the place is very small and therefore there must not be so many inside at a time. On the other hand, it was quite entertaining even though the glass was filled with algae in several places and it was difficult to see the animals. Waste (car tires, empty beer cans, fishing nets and other things) was thrown in the aquariums to show how much waste there is in the sea, nice effect. There was an aquarium with cotton wool and some small sharks. They were all the way up to the surface several times and the pair of stingrays looked almost as if they were dancing on the surface. Incredibly entertaining. A little recommendation from here. 🙂 (Original) På grund af Covid19 som vi og MANGE andre i kø laaang tid da stedet er meget lille og derfor må der ikke være så mange inde af gangen. Til gengæld var det ganske underholdende selv om glasset flere steder var fyldt med alger og man havde svært ved at se dyrene. Der var smidt affald (bildæk, tomme øldåser, fiskenet og andre ting) i akvarierne for at vise hvor meget affald der er i havet, fin effekt. Der var et akvarie hvor der vat rokker og nogle små hajer. De var helt oppe i overfladen flere gange og er par af rokkerne så nærmest ud som om de dansede i overfladen. Utroligt underholdende. En lille anbefaling her fra. 🙂

(Translated by Google) Great for kids (Original) Toll fur Kinders

(Translated by Google) Not quite what we were hoping for. Very small and too little information. (Original) Nicht ganz so was wir uns erhofft haben. Sehr klein und zu wenig Informationen.

(Translated by Google) Entertaining pleasure. If you want to experience the fish world of the North and Baltic Sea not just on a roll, but close to nature, this is the right place.
