It was a cold & windy November Sunday afternoon so we decided to go to the Aquarium in La Rochelle, it was good because there weren't too many people there & we managed to get to see most of the fish. It is well worth a visit as there is a huge variety to look at from, delicate little sea horses to the piranhas set in the tropical rain forest. The main attraction is the large shark tank & they swim over your heads!!!
It takes about 3 hours to see all the fish and then afterwards we had a drink in the café and then onto the Aquarium shop.
During the high season & school holidays it tends to get really busy, so the best time to go is lunchtimes or in the evening as it is open until 11 pm.
