Crete Attractions

Crete Aquarium

Crete Aquarium Thalassocosmos is the largest aquarium in Crete and one of the larger in south Mediterranean.

Here at Crete Aquarium, we aspire to be a unique venue for discovering, learning and promoting awareness of Mediterranean marine life. In its depths, the Mediterranean Sea hides a world little known to most people, with a wide biodiversity of species and habitats that are now under threat more than at any other historical time.

In Crete Aquarium visitors come face to face with approximately 2.500 organisms belonging to 200 species. These are kept in 32 tanks, with a total capacity of 1.600.000 litres.
