Excellent little aquarium with a great range of fish, sea creatures and other marine items from the local area.There is a 'hospital tank' where the owner (who is a really nice guy) explained to us that he houses animals he rescues on a temporary basis before releasing them back into the sea. At the time of our visit there was a sea turtle who he had removed numerous fishing hooks from.Well worth the entry fee. Kids will love the various tanks and the little gift they are given on exit.
My family saved two kittens who were unfortunately abandoned by their mother and almost dying. As we were only on holiday in Faliraki, Rhodes, there was only so much we could do and only had so much time. During the trip we visited this Aquarium and noticed that the owner had some beautiful and friendly cats outside, and we asked him if he would mind taking the two kittens in so they were in safe hands and able to survive after we left. The lovely owner agreed to take them and luckily he had a mother cat who they were able to feed from and get much healthier. We visited often and seen how well he took care of all the cats and how much improvements in both kittens health and lifestyle. A great man who cares so much for both sea-life and cats, saving so many from the area! If you ever visit Faliraki I highly recommend going to visit his aquarium which is a very small fee to enter (to see and touch lots of beautiful sea animals) and also donate any food or toys for the cats if you can as he saves these animals out of the good of his heart and doesn’t make any money from doing so. Very fortunate we came across this Aquarium and the lovely owner!
The Aquarium was very nice! It becomes even nicer when you know how this aquarium originated. The owner of the aquarium takes in sick fish, turtles and what not from the sea. He puts them in a "hospital" fish tank to get them back in good health and puts them back in the sea. He even took the time explain us about how and where he the animals from and what was wrong with them. Next to that he also saves stray cats from the streets and takes care of them. What a noble job this man does. The aquarium is open from 10am till 10pm. It's only 5 euro's for adults and 3 euro's for kids.If you have the time please go and visit so that this man can continue this wonderful work. it won't take long but it worth it to see what kind of animals live in the Mediterranean waters.A gold medal for this man!
Rescue center for a wide variety of sea creatures. There are also a rescue cat area as well. Wide variety of sea animals that are nurtured back to health and released. Beautiful service with a very kind and compassionate owner. Loved coming here and would highly, highly recommend!
It maybe small but it was worth it, owner explained about the animals in the animal hospital, good amount of fish too see, definitely recommend popping in! 5euro for a adult (bargain) he also has kittens and cats that he cares for! So if you have any spare funds he appreciates any donations towards their care!
