Aquarium de Biarritz

Reviewed By grsh1980 - Nice, France

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the aquarium this afternoon; there’s plenty to see and enjoy, the space is clean and explanations are clear and educative. Something to be aware of is that there’s no parking on the premises so you’ll have to walk to the aquarium, the closest spot we could find was a few hundred metres away. This place is well worth a visit - excellent.

Zoo Bassin d'Arcachon

Reviewed By Jenny-D23456789

Loved it! The white tigers were the highlight but the lions and gibbons were great too. Loved being able to walk amongst the lemurs in the Labyrinth and also loved the white pelican and the flamingos. The walk round took me about two hours but I could easily have spent longer there.

On a small specially built island, brown and red haired lemurs (lemurs from Madagascar) swing along from rope courses, all under the friendly eye of a Capybara, the largest rodent in the world.A family day out to the Zoo Your children can stroke miniature goats in the mini-farm, walk side by side with wallabies in the semi-enclosed paddock….. and even be accompanied by friendly peacocks as they stroll along the alleyways. A picnic area shaded by cork oak trees and a children’s play area will complete your wonderful day to be shared with family or friends !

Zoo de Bordeaux Pessac

Reviewed By Wellfan - Gretna Green, United Kingdom

Well designed zoo with plenty of opportunity to view animals. Animals seem well cared for and not showing any signs of stress ie. Big cats doing exactly what they do in the wild - absolutely nothing! Certainly not pacing. Good selection of animals and activities throughout the day eg free flying parrot show. It is well signposted but is up a narrow rural road. Ignore temporary diversion sign if visiting in near future - road closure is just after the zoo.
