I recently visited the only aquarium in Montenegro, and despite its small size, it offered a remarkably tranquil experience. The entrance fee was a reasonable 7€, and my companions and I were the only guests during our visit.
The aquarium itself was quite compact, but it managed to create a peaceful and calming atmosphere. The dimly lit tanks and the gentle, underwater lighting allowed us to fully appreciate the marine life on display. The soothing sound of water added to the overall serenity of the place.
Although the variety of species was limited due to the aquarium's size, the exhibits were well-maintained, and the fish appeared healthy and vibrant. It was a delight to observe the colorful tropical fish, graceful seahorses, and even some local marine species.
One of the highlights of our visit was the opportunity to have a close encounter with some of the sea creatures. The staff was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, providing interesting facts about the animals and allowing us to touch some of them, which was a unique and educational experience.

Howerver those with children who like to rush round looking at everything before leaving via the shop you will not spend very...

Not particularly big, having 18 tanks divided into four exhibition units: (1) The World Sea and Mediterranean Sea, (2) Adriatic Sea and South Adriatic, (3) Boka Bay and (4) tropical seas.
As it was not crowded at the time of the visit, we had enough time and space to look carefully around the seaworld species. Most loving was the lonely octopus, who was awakened from its sleep and even eager to interact with us...Shy sea urchins...and the lovely stingeray guy 😂 were the...
