• Book a time slot online, which costs less than the door and is the only way to be sure of getting in on weekends, holidays and school breaks
• Leave the big stroller outside, since bulky strollers, bike trailers and wagons are not allowed on weekends, holidays and school breaks, and the paths inside are narrow
• Next to the Olympic Tower in the Olympiapark, with two park playgrounds a short walk away for after the visit

SEA LIFE Munich is an indoor aquarium in the Olympiapark, next to the Olympic Tower. A walk-through underwater tunnel runs beneath the tropical ocean tank, home to blacktip reef sharks and Pünktchen, a zebra shark.

Other zones cover the Isar river, the Danube delta, jellyfish, seahorses and a discovery pool. Many tanks sit at floor level, so toddlers can see in without being lifted.
