Monaco Oceanographic Museum: A Stunning Journey into the Deep Blue Mediterranean

Step into the Monaco Oceanographic Museum and feel as though you've entered a kingdom of azure! This white structure perched on a cliff was founded by Prince Albert I himself, and its majestic exterior, standing 85 meters tall, is breathtaking. Inside, the Mediterranean's shimmering waves are visible through an entire glass wall, perfectly complementing the museum's fascinating marine specimens. From 8-meter-high stone columns engraved with the names of historic exploration ships to the basement aquarium housing giant octopuses and hawksbill turtles, every corner seems to whisper secrets of the deep sea. The rooftop terrace is the most awe-inspiring spot, where Mediterranean sunlight pours down, and yachts dot the harbor in the distance, creating a picturesque view. While some exhibits, like Captain Cousteau's deep-sea equipment, may feel a bit technical, sitting in the Shark Room watching giant sharks glide through a six-meter-deep tank or experiencing the dreamy ambiance of the Jellyfish Room under changing lights will make you realize this is more than just a museum—it's a pilgrimage to awaken your passion for the ocean. The ticket price may be steep, but every minute is worth it!

#celebratewithtrip #monaco #montecarlo #museum Visit the Oceanographic Museum At the end of the Saint Martin Gardens you will be able to see the Oceanographic Museum. From what we read, this is very similar to SEA LIFE London Aquarium and we didn’t feel like visiting on this occasion. If you haven’t been to a place like this before or if you are visiting Monaco with kids, then the Oceanographic Museum might just be the right thing for you. The Oceanographic Museum is a museum of marine sciences in Monaco-Ville, Monaco. This building is part of the Institut océanographique, which is committed to sharing its knowledge of the oceans.
