Sharks, penguins, jellyfish, colourful seahorses and many other species of local and foreign fauna form part of the attractions at the Ubatuba Aquarium, where visitors have the opportunity to see up close a little of the complex ocean world. Our oceans occupy more than 70% of the surface of our planet and contribute largely to the existence and propagation of life, including the most elaborate life-forms: humans.

Tanks

Founded in 1996 by a group of oceanographers, the aquarium has 12 saltwater tanks – among them one of the largest tanks in Brazil at 80 thousand litres.

One of the main attractions is the Touch Tank which allows the contact between visitors and diverse examples of sea animals, like sea cucumbers and starfish, lobsters and more – always under the guidance of one of our specialised monitor staff.

Opening Hours

During the school year, the aquarium opens daily from 10:00 until 20:00 from Sunday to Thursday. Friday and Saturday it opens from 10:00 until 22:00. On school holidays the aquarium opens daily from 10:00 until 22:00.
