It is not really big, but it has enough diversity of species and is really cheap. There is a children park next to it, so after the visit you can go and play your kids ;). more »

Todo zoologico , acuario o cualquier lugar donde se vean bichos es agradable por un lado y da un poco de pena el encierro por otro. Se ven especies muy exoticas. El tortugo es enorme. Lastima que este en lugar tan pequeño

El Acuario Municipal -inaugurado el 25 de mayo de 1945- es el único de la provincia de gestión pública municipal, con función social y sin fines de lucro. Incorporó obras de vital importancia, que permiten su puesta en valor y el rescate del tradicional paseo que desde su inauguración cuadruplicó sus visitas. Contiene especies locales y exóticas de agua dulce y salada. Se destacan entre ellas las especies del Río Paraná y una enorme tortuga marina de 90 años aproximadamente que hace 15 años que está en cautiverio. Posee servicios adecuados para facilitar el acceso de discapacitados, cuenta con una plataforma hidráulica y un sistema de rampas que permite la libre circulación en la totalidad del recorrido. Tiene un anfiteatro, 3 espejos de agua, 36 pequeñas pantallas de leds con textos explicativos, un recinto especial que aloja al tortugo Jorge y una terraza donde se encuentra el recinto de los yacarés y reptiles
