Seaquarium du Grau du Roi, a truly committed marine institute
Did you know that? The equivalent of a garbage truck is dumped into the oceans every minute!
The Grau du Roi Seaquarium has decided to take action.
This marine institute is actively involved in the preservation of marine flora and fauna.
The projects are very varied. They are orchestrated by the Institute’s teams, but also by NGOs, local associations, project promoters and others.
The vast majority of the institute’s activities take place in the Mediterranean, and more specifically in the Gulf of Lion. He is also involved in international projects from time to time.
The Seaquarium is 2,400 m2 dedicated to the discovery and education of underwater species.
Do you know the Espiguette speckled seahorse and short-snouted seahorse?
Located on the Camargue coast near the Banc de l’Espiguette, the Seaquarium institute in Le Grau du Roi breeds seahorses to support the development of the species.
Visit the “Espace méditerrannéen” universe! You’ll find that this marine animal from the Petite Camargue plunges you into a fascinating world.
Gulf of Lion Blue Shark
The blue shark is the last shark species to be seen in the French Mediterranean. It is also one of the most heavily fished sharks in the world. This curious animal is regularly seen off the Mediterranean coast.
The Gulf of Lion is also one of the nurseries of the blue shark.
This species is threatened and even critically endangered (CR) in the Mediterranean. That’s why the Grau du Roi Seaquarium, in association with several associations and the Munich Aquarium, is working to protect its ecosystem.
A wide range of actions to protect the marine environment
The institute welcomes and educates people from an early age. Many schools visit the Seaquarium, which offers attractive rates.
In addition to educational outings, the creation of dissemination campaigns aimed at all age groups helps to inform and educate new generations.
