Headout is an authorized and trusted partner of the venue, offering curated experiences to enjoy this attraction. This is not the venue's website.
Standard admission offers timed entry to all permanent and temporary exhibits, including the magnificent Central Ocean Tank. Your pre-booked tickets let you skip the lines, giving you more time to enjoy a self-guided tour.
Yes, you can buy tickets on site. However, skip‐the‐line tickets are highly recommended to avoid queues, especially during the busy summer season, as almost half the bookings are made last-minute.
Yes, you can combine your visit to the Oceanário with two other attractions, including the Telecabine Cable Car (located just 5 minutes away) and the Lisbon Zoo (located just 15 minutes away).
The Lisbon Hop-on Hop-off bus tour gives you the option to choose from 24, 48, or 72-hour passes. You get access to 51 attractions across Lisbon along five different routes. A multilingual audio guide also ensures you can enjoy engaging insights into these attractions’ history and cultural significance.
The Oceanário de Lisboa is located in the modern Parque das Nações district. Take the Metro Red Line to Oriente Station, or use buses and trains. If you have the Lisbon Card, your journey is even smoother, since it includes free access to public transport. For those driving, underground parking is near the Vasco da Gama Shopping Centre.
Oceanário de Lisboa is open daily from 10am to 8pm, with the last entry at 7pm. To avoid the crowds, try visiting on weekday mornings or late afternoons, especially during spring or autumn when the experience is more relaxed.
You should set aside at least 2-3 hours for your visit, especially if you’re visiting with family. The Oceanário is a brilliant experience for visitors of all ages, and ideal for kids too.
No, flash photography is not permitted because it can disturb the sensitive marine life. Selfie sticks are also prohibited. However, you can capture photos and videos for personal use.
Yes, the Oceanário caters to visitors confined to wheelchairs or those with limited mobility. Ramps and elevators make access easy, and all restrooms are adapted to be wheelchair accessible.
Clean and nice enviroment, all of the fishes was beautoful to look at. It felt like they had it good. I can see why there is a popular place to visit
The aquarium is huge and immersive. You almost feel like you're in the middle of the fish. The plaice and sharks are magnificent. A must-see!
Very nice - mighty sharks and rays - great food in the restaurant with super friendly staff and afterwards fun playing in the water garden.
I have always wanted to see sharks. This aquarium made my wish come true. It's a beautiful place, it has interesting educational content. I also loved the short film projection about human connection to the ocean.
The design of the aquarium tours is very attractive and informative. The combination with the cable car rounds off this event nicely.
We loved how easy it was to book! Phenomenal aquarium, probablythe best I've been to. So nicely laid out, well maintained & clean. Exhibits were informative and in both Portuguese and English. Learned so much! Adding the cable car ticket was so worth it.
The central tank acted as a touchstone for the ocean as we went to each of the represented areas. My sister is in a wheelchair and there were always friendly staff to show us to elevators as needed.
One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
I loved the design but more importantly, I appreciate the Oceanario's commitment to protecting the oceans.
Although I booked tickets last time (1 hour before) everything went fine.
Great place to visit. Rare creatures and amazing staff.
Convenient booking and the whole experience was magical. We loved the Sea Otters and puffins which were highlights. The Forest Underwater exhibition was wonderful too.
It was very user friendly and easy to book my combo ticket on your app and I liked that I was able to open the app at the entrance so I didn't need data to go into the app.
Very beautiful but they were doing maintenance, there were some aquariums that were not working, but the big one was beautiful. So it was fabulous
The exhibits are quite beautiful and fascinating! Our only criticisms are that the hallways need better lighting, maybe using color stripes would also help and I wanted more detailed information about the marine life and ocean - maybe an audio guide is needed.
Loved the sea otters and sea dragons All the advertising says it's the best in the world - it's not! Much smaller than expected, not even any turtles!
It lacks more immersive experiences, and admission is very expensive too. I thought it would be more diversified. Not all the senses are used.
Really wonderful!!!! we really enjoyed the tour, both children and adults. We were fascinated!!!!!100% recommended!!!!!!
Getting tickets was easy. It was good to see there were reductions for seniors. We enoyed the aquarium far more than we expected. It was set out really well and we spent around 3 hours inside. The cable car was enoyable but we were very disappointed to discover that we were expected to pay extra for the viewing tower. That was not made clear.
Oceanario was a great experience. Large & beautiful aquarium
It was both exciting and fascinating for our child, and for us as parents too!
It is very nice place, you have to visit
By buying the ticket before we didn't have to stay in the que. The place is worth to visit.
Purchasing tickets was easy. The Oceanário was beautiful and the cable cards provided a great view both sides!
Both attractions are very well worth enjoying. The Oceanográfico is excellent
Explore 15,000+ creatures across 500 species from 4 oceanic regions at your own pace.

Too long a wait between buses Lack of information on how the buses work A lot of confusion about which buses are accessible with the ticket purchased, as there are several operators...
Everything else was very good. Even ordering the ticket was made easy
We couldn't use any of it. There were zero links from email confirmations to the app on where to get on the bus. There was no gps tracking on where the buses are or let alone a map with a high enough resolution to zoom in on. No one in the areas of Lisbon where the buses are supposed to run could help. I tried customer support, chat option, etc. We gave up and ended up finding someone who worked for your company running the boat ride. We purchased that from her and did that. She couldn't help us find the hop on hop off bus routes either. She also said she was out of maps for the boat ride too that she was running.
Skip the lines at the Oceanário de Lisboa & enjoy limitless sightseeing across Lisbon.

fast, convenient, practical, many acceptance locations

Greatest part was that we could climb almost everywhere, even the places we didn't know exist but found them accidentaly
Great place to visit. Rare creatures and amazing staff.
Convenient booking and the whole experience was magical. We loved the Sea Otters and puffins which were highlights. The Forest Underwater exhibition was wonderful too.
The possibility of using mezzia for the same price should last 84 hours I was 5 days and I could have used an extra day!
Extremely practical and interesting card! It's a pity that it doesn't also exist for 4, 5 ... days in a row. Unfortunately for us, Sintra was closed due to the fires, but we were reimbursed without any problem!
It was very user friendly and easy to book my combo ticket on your app and I liked that I was able to open the app at the entrance so I didn't need data to go into the app.
No long waits for entering museums and visiting other landmarks, convenient to hop on and off busses, trains and trams. Peace of mind in a small card!

Very easy to use for all transport, including the train to Sintra or Caiscais, the historic streetcar, and all Lisbon transport. Very easy to get into monuments, simply by presenting the card, sometimes even with a queue-cutter to save waiting time. And also discounts on souvenir purchases at Lisbon city information centers. The latter was a surprise for me. I'd recommend it if you want to visit a lot of monuments that would be expensive on their own. On the other hand, if you're planning to visit only free places or few paying sites, then simply pay by credit card directly, including for transport. Make your calculations! We're delighted.

It was great that you didn't have to worry about whether you could take the bus or not. You could often get in quicker than if you had to buy a ticket on the spot. I really liked the Crown Jewels exhibition. We went there in the afternoon and there was hardly anything going on.
Really wonderful!!!! we really enjoyed the tour, both children and adults. We were fascinated!!!!!100% recommended!!!!!!
