Dive safely into the depths of the ocean and discover the treasures hidden beneath its waters. You&#8217;ll also find aquatic related animals from different parts of the world and a variety of activities for children.<\/p>\n<h2>Activities for everyone in Sea Life<\/h2>\n<p>The Benalmadena Sea Life Aquarium is an ideal family destination, so if you&#8217;ve decided to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/malaga-airport\/travel-with-children\/\">travel with children<\/a>, you may want to include it on your list of things to do in Benalmadena.<\/p>\n<p>Among the most popular places in the aquarium is an underwater tunnel; from this tunnel, you can see sharks and large turtles among other animals.<\/p>\n<h3>Children&#8217;s activities<\/h3>\n<p>Every year there are activities and games for children in Sea Life. There are also special events during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/events\/halloween-malaga\/\">Halloween<\/a> in which children in costume will have free admission.<\/p>\n<p>The Benalmadena Aquarium is a perfect place for children to discover some amazing marine species:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Starfish<\/li>\n<li>Sea Horses<\/li>\n<li>Sharks<\/li>\n<li>Sea turtles<\/li>\n<li>Jellyfish<\/li>\n<li>Otters<\/li>\n<li>Octopus<\/li>\n<li>Stingrays<\/li>\n<li>Exotic fish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Also once you finish the tour through the aquarium, there is a playground with a cafe next to it; for both parents and their children to enjoy a break. In my case after he played enough he asked to watch the big turtle again, so we made a second tour.<\/p>\n<h3>Aquarium Zones<\/h3>\n<p>The aquarium is divided into different zones, each of them oriented to a particular activity. Let&#8217;s get to know them.<\/p>\n<h4>Stingrays Island<\/h4>\n<p>You can watch different species of stingrays up close and even feed them. Rays are fish related to sharks, although as you can see they look quite different.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/espanol\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/stingray-raya.jpg\" itemprop=\"contentUrl\"  data-gallery title=\"Sea Life, Benalmadena Aquarium - Activities, timetables and prices\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6953\" src=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/espanol\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/stingray-raya.jpg\" alt=\"Rayas en el acuario\" width=\"1200\" height=\"639\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As a curious fact, some of the largest known stingrays measure 9 meters between the tips of their flippers and weigh 1300 kilograms.<\/p>\n<p>The stingrays feed on shellfish and inhabit all seas, near the coasts. The vast majority are harmless except for a species that lives in warm, shallow waters.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to see how they feed you can visit them at 12.30 pm any day of the week.<\/p>\n<h4>Jellyfish<\/h4>\n<p>Jellyfish are animals with a gelatinous body and long tentacles. Sometimes they can be found on our coasts and must be avoided. You can learn more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/costa-del-sol\/what-do-you-do-when-you-get-stung-by-jellyfish\/\">about jellyfish<\/a> in our other article, where we also tell you what to do in case you get stung.<\/p>\n<h4>Jurassic Tunnel<\/h4>\n<p>The Jurassic period ended 145 million years ago and is characterized by the great dinosaurs that walked on the planet. In this area of the aquarium, you will find some close relatives; big species like the black tip reef shark or the big green turtle.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6546\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6546\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children.jpg\" itemprop=\"contentUrl\"  data-gallery title=\"Sea Life, Benalmadena Aquarium - Activities, timetables and prices\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6546\" src=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children.jpg\" alt=\"My son in the aquarium\" width=\"900\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.malagaweb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/sealife-aquarium-children-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6546\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My son certainly enjoyed the visit to the aquarium, we had to make a second tour through it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Every day at 12.30 am sharks and rays are fed.
