Den Blå Planet, National Aquarium Denmark

Next to Copenhagen Airport and the metro, you'll find Northern Europe's largest aquarium, Den Blå Planet.

The award-winning architectural building draws its guests beneath the surface. Immerse yourself in an unforgettable experience with over 24,000 animals.

With 7 million liters of water and 735 species, Den Blå Planet, National Aquarium Denmark, is an attraction for all ages. Here, you don’t just walk through an exhibition – you step into an underwater universe where all senses are brought to life.

Experience the thrill as sharks swim over your head in the enormous Ocean Tank. Roll up your sleeves and assist in feeding the cownose rays, or explore the Rainforest, spotting birds, reptiles, and a sloth.

Den Blå Planet is one of the few places in Europe where you can experience sea otters. All the sea otters at the aquarium have been rescued from the wild after being separated from their mothers or injured.

During the summer months, even more adventures await: Splash around in the water playground or explore The Wild Pond, where you can catch tiny creatures with a net and examine them up close with a magnifying glass.
