Fodor's Expert Review Sea Life Porto
The city's top children's attraction, this well maintained aquarium is at the western end of Avenida da Boavista. Sharks, jellyfish, rays, and giant turtles are among the 5,600 or so animals on display, representing hundreds of species. Other highlights include Portugal's only Ocean Tunnel, which gives a peek into underwater life for the colorful creatures that inhabit the main tank. The nearby Parque da Cidade, a large landscaped park dotted with trees and lakes, is a lovely place for a picnic.
