The oceanarium in Gelendzhik is something worth visiting

In fact, the oceanarium in Gelendzhik is not the only one. But other institutions can be called oceanariums (although this is stated in their advertisements) only with a stretch, since both the area of the premises is small, and the aquariums are tiny, and there are few inhabitants.

Consider the oceanarium in Gelendzhik, which is located in the center of the city and belongs to the all-Russian network "Ocean Park".

Area

This oceanarium was built recently - in 2007, but over the years it became very popular among residents and guests of Gelendzhik. Nowadays it is one of the main sights of the city.

Reviews

The oceanarium (Gelendzhik), about which almost all enthusiastic, is one of the main attractions of the resort. All those who visited here were very satisfied that they visited this place. Actually, dissatisfied with the visit of this giant aquarium can only be either full opponents of keeping animals in captivity, or spoiled by giant giant containers for fish and animals people.

Within the framework of our country, let alone such a small resort town, it is a large, interesting, beautiful and exploratoryly important facility for monitoring underwater inhabitants and studying their lives. It is unfortunate that many of the animals present in the aquarium are on the verge of extinction.
