    !Important! This place doesn't exist anymore since autumn 2018, it is a tram depot now! Please report this place to Google, so it's deleted and you don't get tricked into getting there like I was!

    One of the smallest museums I've ever been to. Although beautifully crafted with nice interactive displays and light effects you will have seen everything within an hour. So do this as part of a full day of activities rather than a stand alone visit. But as I said, it's very good and kids definitely love this!

    Not very big, but very interesting. Both tropical and Baltic aquariums. Almost all of them have English information available. The cafe has good coffee and a decent food selection. This is a great museum for kids and also interesting for adults.

    Nice but small aquarium in Skansen. A bit too small for the price and the rain forest area can be quite creepy for those who hate darkness but it is very well done. There is amazing frogs exhibition at the back and feature a nicely decorated cafe.

    This place is awesome. This is our second visit to Aquaria. Walking in the rain forest is really an adventure for the kids. Especially when the rain and thunder starts. This time they had added a frog exhibition. The staff were very friendly and nice. We will definitely come back. Probably sooner than later.

    It is okay. Very small and limited aquarium. You can be done in 10 minutes. Would think they could invest a lot more in a larger and more interesting aquarium to attract more people. Good for kids, obviously. Except for the interesting rain forest area you can end your quick tour at the cafĂŠ.

    Super place for kids! No too big and not too small. Great location. Surprisingly they do not accept Stockholm Pass but it should not stop you from going in.

    Although small, this is a very good place to take kids. The rainforest section was cool (wait for it to become night-time) as were the bigger tanks with small sharks. The kids room at the very end was also very nice, when it is not crowded. I did not get there in time to see any of the feedings, but that would be fun to watch as well!

    We hesitated at first because not all reviews on Google were good. Now we're more than happy to having come here. The staff is lovely, the aquariums are designed with a lot of love and the cafeteria is worth a visit. (25,- for coffee including endless refills 😉) 100% win.

    Nice place to visit if you are in the area. Not something you would specifically go for . Small not many fish.

    Short but really nice! Fun for kids. Don't miss when they feed the fishes. They gave this cool tunnel through one of the aquarium

    We were told it's a small one, so we just planned to spend one hour there - totally not enough! It is really nicely designed and arranged. The rain forest at the entrance together with the shark aquarium is fantastic! We spend a lot time to watch the jellyfishes and four-eyed fish as well. And it will take you some time if you want to find all the frogs - they are talent in hiding themselves. One star off because of the price, but a year ticket could be worthy!

    Small place, great for young kids. Restaurant/cafe with nice food and a lovely view.

  • 4/5 J F. 6 years ago on Google
    Very nice design and surprising layout, there are sea creatures from abroad and a interesting shark tank with a tunnel through it! It also shows swedish fish and cultivation of salmon!

    I was expecting much more from this price. Rather small area and few exhibitions. Jellyfish and rays were fantastic to look at.

    Nice for family with children. Overall visit time + - 2h. There is also cafe inside and place to eat with nice view.

  • 4/5 Noora T. 6 years ago on Google
    Nice and interesting place eventhough quite small. Cafe was also good, wide variety of pastries at reasonable prices. Friendly staff.

    I was the firs visitor but half of aquariums was switched off :( and finally realized it is so tiny!!! Just 3 small rooms!! Omg 😮 you have to take half price of that you took!! Shame!

    really nice aquarium, but a little to small to get a real activity out of it. Sadly theyre closing this year due to the state of the building and to little customers, you shouldreally visit this place before its to late.

    Good place to hangout. Feels more close to nature. Excellent rainforest setup

    Went by really quick, there wasn't that much to see. I came with my little sister and we expected to see something a bit more fun. It might just be the current exhibits but there was a lack of things to do there. Took around 45 mins to see everything when we prepared for 2 hours.

👍👍 It’s a place and collection of aquarium with different kind of baltic sea species. It’s an awesome place to visit, specially in summer time. This place is a part of Skansen zoo. So if you purchase ticket of Skansen, you can access this science center.
