There is not a ton of animals, but the tanks they have are well executed and seem well taken care of. Exhibits like the Nautilus are pretty cool but also feel a bit random. Really reasonable admission. A place worth checking out if you have kids.

When it come to my vacations there is nothing that I enjoy more than visiting historical sites and…read morelast week I had the incredible opportunity to visit the Torre de Hércules in La Coruña during my vacation, and it was nothing short of awe-inspiring! This lighthouse is not only a magnificent architectural marvel, but it also carries with it centuries of history. Originally built in the 2nd century by the Romans, the Torre de Hércules is the oldest working lighthouse in the world. It was constructed under the reign of Emperor Trajan and is believed to have been designed by the architect Gaius Sevius Lupus. The tower served as a guiding beacon for ships navigating the treacherous waters along the northwestern coast of Spain. Getting to the site involves a fairly steep walk up a hill, and once you're there, you'll need to climb the stairs to reach the top of the tower. It's a workout, for sure, so I recommend being in decent physical condition if you plan to make the ascent. But trust me, the climb is well worth it--the views from the top are absolutely breathtaking. On a clear day, you can see the stunning Galician coastline stretch for miles! What makes this site even more impressive is how well it's been preserved and maintained. Since 2009, it's been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, ensuring its careful conservation and protection. Inside the tower, there are informative displays that take you through its historical significance, adding depth to the visit. I couldn't give anything less than a five stars on this review, because whether you're a history buff or just looking for a unique landmark to visit, Torre de Hércules is a must-see in La Coruña!
