San Antonio Cap Blanc Aquarium Boat Trip

3. Cap Blanc Aquarium Boat Trip

Location
Sant Antoni

This short boat trip to the Cap Blanc Aquarium in San Antonio is a great chance to visit a traditional Ibizan lobster 'hatchery'.

When the cave was originally created as a hatchery for fish and lobster there were water inlets created to ensure water circulation and oxygenation, so this is still an ideal location to house some of the Mediterranean's most common species - and a great opportunity to view them up close!

The aquarium is also used by the Centre for Recovery of Marine Species, so you can frequently see the work of this organisation who are committed to caring for sea creatures. Sea turtles are the most common animals to be found recovering here.
