YOUR RIO GUIDE

AquaRio: Rio de Janeiro's aquarium

What to see at AquaRio, how to fit it into a tour of the port area and where to check official tickets and opening hours.

What you'll find at AquaRio

AquaRio, Rio de Janeiro's marine aquarium, is located in the port area of Gamboa. The visit focuses on marine life, and it's an option for a family day out or to combine with other venues in Porto Maravilha.

How to plan your visit

Set aside time for the visit without cramming too many stops into a single day. The port area lets you combine AquaRio with the Museu do Amanhã or the Museu de Arte do Rio, taking into account travel between them and each venue's opening hours.

Check AquaRio's official website for up-to-date tickets, opening hours, activities and access. If you're going by car, check the parking information published there.
