What a lovely park. There's plenty of green space to have a picnic, play with your pup, do yoga, etc., and trails to stroll along or run on. Maksimir is an ideal place to get outdoors while staying in the city.

Reviewed By KarenN_cloud - Hong Kong, China

I have visited quite a number of Zoos all around the world. Yet, to my surprise, this little zoo shows a wide range of animals, snakes, zebra, lion, wolfs etcetc. We spent around 2 hours and learn a lot from the Zoo.

Aquarium Pula

Welcome to Aquarium Pula, where in a unique way the richness of the Adriatic is combined with the centennial military history of Pula. The Aquarium is situated within the 130-year-old fort “Verudela”, once part of the powerful defence complex “Fortress Pula” built during the rule of the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy. The historical fort is nowadays inhabited by hundreds of fish species from the northern and the southern portions of the Adriatic and several tropical marine and fresh water species, as well as fish from Croatian lakes and rivers. Meet our inhabitants in rooms, hallways, tunnels and the moat of the once mighty fort and discover secrets of the aquatic environment!

Would definitely recommend visiting here if you have kids or any interest in sea life. This aquarium is huge over multiple floors with some amazing sea life to see. They have many amazing tanks with all kinds of fish and reptiles, a nursery and even a rehabilitation centre for injured sea life to heal before they are released back into the ocean. All the signs and information are translated into English too, so easily able to understand and learn. On the top floor they also have an outdoor area perfect for having a bite to eat with an amazing view of the Adriatic Sea. We were really lucky and had the place to ourselves (mostly likely because all the surrounding hotels and campsites are closed during this season) but still managed to spend over 2 hours roaming around taking in this incredible aquarium.

Being an nature lovers, we had great time visiting Aquatika! Beautiful setting on shores of river Korana, its new modern design blends nicely in the enviroment ... All types of of freshwater fish can be seen in pools, and some are in impressive size! But also relaxing caffe bar area or just walk to the dam are quite nice. A little bit dark in some areas(tunnel), and as well lack of the other wildlife from the water )like frogs, snakes etc) are areas which could be improved...
