The extraordinary La Rochelle Aquarium
One family, one dream, and a story spanning 60 years. With 12,000 marine animals, 600 species, 82 tanks, and an unwavering commitment to marine life protection, the La Rochelle Aquarium invites you on a journey around the world into the vibrant and fragile world of the oceans.
Give meaning to your stay in La Rochelle
Whether you live in or are just visiting La Rochelle, the proximity to the sea and surrounding nature offers a new perspective on your relationship with the environment. Resident or holidaymaker, you can't ignore it! So leave your car in the parking lot, hop on a bike, and make the right choices!
Eco-friendly walk and harbour clean-up
It’s a hot Friday afternoon on La Rochelle’s Old Port. The terraces are crowded, tourists are strolling, and boats sway gently under the sun. Amid this lively summer scene, five figures in green vests walk along the pontoons, armed with nets, rakes, and a waste trailer at the ready. Their mission: to scoop up the floating debris from the harbor. Their rallying point: the Écho-Mer association, which has been taking concrete action for over 20 years to preserve the coastline.
