Doruk GuldemetMarch 27, 2021If you can not find anything interesting to do,then come to here and spend 1 hour. Thats enough to see seals and some fishes.Best part is you can see some theathers about Northern lights and Svalbard.
Baran BaşimiJuly 30, 2022It’s a pretty small place, great if you want to learn something about the wildlife. I do not like a zoo but they seem to take really good care of the sea lions. They are adorable to look at.
Daniel TanahatoeFebruary 18, 2017The video about Svålbard (Spitsbergen) is great to watch and gives an impression of the Arctic. What I liked too was the way they highlight the effects of climate change in the Artic.
Yarn LamFebruary 11, 2019Really small but otherwise good to pop in and learn something if it’s snowing hard outside. Well-stocked souvenir shop.
Victoria VarzhelMarch 14, 2013Seal show is worth seeing. It's better to find a good spot 5 mins before it starts. Especially if you want to take pics:)
Tory SchorschMarch 24, 2015Go look at the seals!! The whole place is cool but watching the seals was particularly awesome
Angela HumDecember 3, 2014Not really worth the 120 Kroner entry fee. This place was small enough to walk through in 30 minutes! The seals were nice to watch but it's not a show, just a quiet training session where they get fed
Espiranza Bint AbdullaOctober 29, 2014Beautiful landmark on the shore. I wasn't too impressed with information and content of the center. Definitely not worth 130 krones
Lívia de LizJanuary 26, 2015It's a good place if is snowing and you don't have anything to do. Just don't expect to much!
BenoîtJune 30, 2012I was the Mayor more than 1 year ! Wonderful place but don't try the cookies recipe, i did and they weren't pretty good ;-)
David VJuly 7, 2012Looking a bit tired. Quite small. Not good value even by Tromsø standards Good shop though.
David KFebruary 19, 2016This could be amazing, but sadly isn't - come on Polaria! It's 2016 catching seals and keeping them in a tank like this is not cool
Igor ScalarievJanuary 19, 2015Музей красивый снаружи, но технически подустарел внутри (панорамное кино из середины 90х впечатляет несильно). Но сувенирная лавка лучшая в этом городке (есть паренёк, который говорит по-русски).
Jordi JiménezAugust 27, 2016Muy sencillito y no muy extenso, se puede obviar la visita si no estás mucho tiempo en Tromsø
Davide StefaniniNovember 10, 2014Niente di eccezionale... Il film panoramico non è di gran qualità e le attrazioni sono scarsine, ma almeno le foche sono interessanti.
Benjamin JenoudetDecember 30, 2018Pas grand chose à voir a part un film et un aquarium avec 4 phoques. Décevant
