Oceanographic Museum
This impressive museum of marine sciences is the perfect place to spend the day with children. Not only is the building itself incredibly attractive – rising from the side of the Monaco cliffs in consistent splendor – it is home to vast sea fauna collections, and its exhibitions, which last for varying amounts of time, are unique and insightful. Importantly for the little ones, the aquarium, situated in the basement, presents more than 6000 specimens to be ‘oohed’ and ‘aahed’ at.
