What to expect

The Cité de l'Océan is a space dedicated to the discovery of the ocean. It offers a unique opportunity to deepen your knowledge through a fun and original staging, answering questions such as where the ocean's water comes from, how waves are born, and whether the ocean is in danger. Visitors can descend into the abyssal depths of the Capbreton pit on a bathyscaphe, experience a storm on a shipwreck, and meet a giant squid named Archie. The city also features interactive exhibitions, 3D animations, and special effects, making it a captivating experience for visitors of all ages
