A gateway opening onto the blue depths of the Black Sea, the Trabzon Aquarium sits in Ortahisar and reveals to its visitors the secrets of a sea that has stood at the heart of the region's commercial and cultural life for centuries. One of the most fertile areas of the Black Sea since antiquity, Trabzon is known for its rich variety of fish species such as anchovy, bluefish, and whiting. In the aquarium's tanks, the characteristic creatures of the Black Sea are displayed alongside colorful corals and aquatic plants, laying bare the unique diversity of the region's marine ecosystem. An interesting fact: the Black Sea is less salty than other oceans, which makes the species living here truly distinctive. The aquarium also helps visitors appreciate the depth of the local fishing tradition and Trabzon's historic bond with the sea. A visitor's tip: if you go, choose the afternoon; at those hours the play of light makes the creatures in the tanks look more vivid and colorful.
