Fodor's Expert Review Aquarium Pula

Located on the ground floor of the onetime Austro-Hungarian fortress in the resort area of Verudela, a few kilometers from the city center, the aquarium also serves as a sea turtle rescue center. Its 35 pools offer a colorful look at hundreds of sea creatures from the Adriatic's underwater world and include a touch pool with sea stars, sea urchins, crabs, and sea squirts. Climb to the roof of the fort for great vistas over Pula.
