Audio Guide of the Gdynia Aquarium

The Aquarium is located at the end of the South Pier and usually opens from 09:00 to 19:00 in high season (summer) and from 10:00 to 17:00 the rest of the year. It is advisable to check the updated hours directly on its official website before going.

General admission tickets are around 35 PLN for adults and 25 PLN for reduced rates, although prices may vary by season. Affordable family tickets are available and admission is free for children under 4 years old.

To leisurely tour the three floors and observe the thousands of species in the 68 tanks, we recommend setting aside between 90 minutes and 2 hours. It's the ideal amount of time to enjoy everything from Baltic fauna to coral reefs.

Opened in 1971, it is not just a zoo, but part of the National Marine Fisheries Research Institute, making it a vital educational center in Poland. Its mission combines tourist exhibition with deep work in conservation and biological research.

I suggest going first thing in the morning (right when they open) or on weekdays outside of the summer season for a quieter experience. Avoid rainy days in summer, as it is the favorite refuge of all the tourists in the area.

Yes, the Gdynia Aquarium is fully adapted and has elevators that allow access to all exhibition levels. People with reduced mobility can enjoy the tour without any architectural barriers.

The location is privileged; right outside you'll find the famous museum ships ORP Błyskawica and Dar Pomorza docked at the pier. In addition, Gdynia's main beach is a short walk away.

Don't miss the viewing terrace if the weather permits for unique views of the bay, and remember not to use flash in your photos so as not to stress the animals. To deeply understand what you're seeing, using a good audio guide will turn your stroll into a masterclass.
