The Sea

The fascination of the sea for young and old 

Over 70 per cent of our planet is covered by vast expanses of water, which we call oceans. Beneath their surface lies a fascinating world, the discovery of which is one of the never-ending tasks of mankind. More than 250,000 species have been recorded so far, and research is constantly bringing new life forms and secrets to light. 
 
The new immersive special exhibition The Sea invites explorers of all ages to take a unique look beneath the surface of the oceans and their many inhabitants. After all, who hasn't dreamed of being swarmed by fish, seeing a coral reef up close or playing in the water with dolphins? 
 
Dive with us! 

Experience the underwater world - life-size and up close 
 
Watch deep-sea fish that are rarely seen, feel as if you are touching a great white shark and marvel at dancing schools of fish: if you take part in the dive, you will find yourself surrounded by giant blue whales, orcas and sperm whales. 
 
Visitors can experience the shapes and colours of the underwater flora and fauna in full life size and up close. From exotic seahorses and glowing jellyfish to deep dark waters where no light can penetrate, every corner of the immersive ocean reveals new breathtaking landscapes and creatures. 
 
For adults and children alike, this is an opportunity to discover the infinite richness of the oceans that few people get to see and which is currently in a fragile state 
 
So put on your goggles and dive with us, we promise you will keep your feet dry.
