Description
The Aquarium of Seville holds over 7,000 specimens from about 400 different aquatic species in over 30 different tanks. The highlight is the oceanarium with its 9m high water column. Themed areas include Guadalquivir, Atlantic, Amazonian, Pacific and Indo-Pacific. According to the website, these are modelled after Magellan voyage around the world in 1519.

Conclusion
The Aquarium of Seville is probably not anybody's first thought when visiting the city but for those (families in particular) looking to take a break from palaces, churches and other museums - or seeking to escape the sun - this is a good option, although value isn't great.
