It's a nice aquarium but a but expensive for what it was. We where done in 2 hours. Drove especially from Luxembourg for it which didn't seem to be worth it. Only nice if you are already in the area. Tickets should be maybe only 15 euro per person not 24.

This is a really big aquarium, with a huge central "pool" and then smaller aquariums all around. Lots of floors all having different topics about marine life. Very educational and fun, great family outing. Was quite crowded, but rightfully so. If you so fancy, the sand beach is right outside to build sand castles after (or swim in the sea).

Fantastic experience. My view on jellyfish completely changed :) So beautiful... So much to see. Beautiful aquarium. Take it slow and pay lots of attention to what you can find in the aquarium. There is so much going on. Every fish sort had its own behavior. Unique. Never saw something like this before wrt aquariums.

Summary - a pretty damn good aquarium with lots to see and do for kids and adults. It makes The Deep (an aquarium in Hull) seem tiny! We only went here as it was raining but we were certainly glad we did. The first point to note is that the ‘official’ car park has a height restriction so is no good for camper vans. The place itself has two main exhibitions plus a penguin exhibition. The first one has a huge tank with sharks, sting rays and lots of lots of fish. This also has a tunnel through it was is good. There are lots and lots of smaller tanks and exhibits. The second one is based on the coast and, again, has loads of small tanks and exhibitions. However the main attraction are the seals and you can only see these through a wall in their tank. This means that you can see them swim under water. The third area is the penguins and these are in a relatively small area. However we were tired by this point so didn’t stay long. There is the obligatory cafe (warning - expensive) and gift shop (reasonably priced). In all we spent 4 hours there which ain’t bad for the €70 or so it cost. Well worth it.

Lots of fish, as we walked the fish tanks never stopped! Recommend the large main tank with the manta ray, very cool and curious! The seals were very cool also! Good crepes and hot chocolates

Nausicaa is truly an experience to take your kids once, to prepare them for the future and climate change. Even though the tariff is high, and yes some reviews do feel it is a glorified sea tank. However given the context we live in this project is remarkable and opens your eyes to the synergies between man and sea in a setting so interactive for kids and adult. Special packages can be introduced to make this accessible to all.

I have always wanted to go since I was a kid and we finally managed to get there. Absolutely amazing place, if you love an aquarium trip then you will love this place! Only advice I can offer is give yourself plenty of time to get around it as it's huge!

A great experience, lovely staff and an overall value for money visit. The variety is great too. They have penguins, seals and a large number of sealife including sharks and stingrays. I went with a school trip that I helped organise and can only say that I will be doing this in future! Visit if you can, you won't be disappointed.

It’s very big and beautiful, their seal 🦭 show was pretty nice and the visiting steps are super interesting, they’ve got many fish i’ve never heard of, and a great sea experience!!!

Great family day out. We spent 5 hours there with 3 kids and they were all entertained. The first part of the exhibition is very digital and tech heavy and there didn't seem to be many fish, but it greatly improved as we moved on to a different exhibition. Food options seemed limited, but the crepes were fresh and tasty.

We made a special visit to go as birthday present for our son. You can buy an additional day ticket for only €5 which is excellent value. We spent the second day seeing things we were too tired to appreciate the first day! This is the best aquarium I’ve ever been to and highly recommend it. The welfare of the animals is paramount and it is obvious how well cared for they are. The cafe is mediocre and quite expensive but functional and has the best view over the beach. Best part is the huge deep water tank based on a site off Columbia in Pacific. The giant manta ray is particularly impressive. Only downside was trying to buy an ice cream at the end and the staff member laughed with her colleagues at my poor French. I left customer feedback for that to raise training need but it meant that I left on a down note after 2 brilliant visits. Please visit and enjoy but I can’t recommend the ice creams!

Lovely day out for all the family. Went for a day trip from the UK. Used the eurotunnel to get from Folkestone to Calais. From there, it's a straight forward 30 minute drive to Nausicaa. Spent a good 5-6 hours there and then drove back. The aquarium itself is fantastic and the staff helpful and friendly. Would definitely do this again.

Very friendly personnel and also very helpful. The aquarium itself is quite big and split up in 2 main parts. It took us 4 hours and 30 to get through it all, at a slow though, which is not bad I think. The place is very clean and modern and there was not a lot of people so it was very comfortable, being a Saturday this was a little bit surprising. The big tank is amazing and is definitely a show stopper. Be sure to check out the giant manta, it's amazing. Parking is located on either side of the facility and is a Qparking. Be mindful however that the beach side parking 'la plage' didn't have Maestro working, so you were only able to pay there with cash, Visa, or Mastercard.

I didn't really think that this place lived up to the expectations. I would visit if I lived in the town, but wouldn't say its worth a long trip to see. The large centre aquarium is quite amazing but there were a lot of areas that just have screens and tv's. Personally, if I go to an aquarium I don't want to see screens... I want to see the real thing! Knocked off some stars for this reason, otherwise there's a wide variety of fish and cool things to see!

It was an ok experience. I expected more than just one big fish tank and tiny sea lion and penguin areas. I feel bad about the animals, though, because they look very crammed. The penguins and sea lions enclosures, especially, looked so tiny! Loads of space for people to walk but not enough for the animals. There were restaurants and a smoking area. I'd advise against using the loo if you can hold it because there are some shocking things to see, apparently. My husband went and came back traumatised 🤣

We spent around 2 hours here, one Sunday. It is an incredible place to visit. Definitely take your time to read all the interesting material that is on offer. The Aquarium is huge and very impressive, with a large array of fish & rare creatures. I would recommend this for all visitors in the area!

Such a great experience to visit this aquarium! you can see different kinds of animals there in very close distance, I was so impressive. Highly recommend people to visit !

Really cool and big aquarium with lots of animals to see. We spent 2h here and that was perfect! We visited on a very sunny and warm Sunday 2.5h before the closing so the aquarium was very empty and that made the experience even better! The sea lions show was stunning! And my favourite thing was the biggest aquarium. That one just leaves you speechless. The only downside is that the ticket prices are quite expensive and I definitely wouldn’t want to visit on a rainy day as there are most likely be too many screaming children around. Additionally, there isn’t much interesting information about the animals.

Absolutely impressive. Huge aquarium/sea life center. I have visited many sea life centres in the world but this one definitely stands out. It has 3 distinct exhibitions: mankind & shores, journey on the high seas and in the eye of the climate. It’s a real deep dive into the ocean world, the aquaria are all super nice, the information is complete and the tone of the exhibition is informational, encouraging and positive. Instead of feeling depressed about the current state of the planet (which can be the case after visiting earth-related exhibitions) you walk out of this place with an informed, positive and motivated mindset, all thanks to the ‘both sides of the story’ perspective of the exhibition. Due to its recency (it was completed in 2018) it feels very up to date. The giant aquarium is super impressive (holding a 4m span manta ray), it has a great restaurant, and never felt extremely busy although we went on a holiday and there were many people inside. Throughout all 3 exhibitions nice and calm music helps set the tone, it’s very nice. We visited with 2 kids aged 10 and 12, and they absolutely loved it. Walked in at 11am, finished the tours at 4.30pm with a 1 hour lunch break. Very good value for money, highly recommended!!

A great family day out while staying in the area. The huge tank where the bulk of the sea-life live can be seen from several places, including from above. We spent around 3 hours there. Parking in the nearby Q-Park Nausicaa is discounted if you're visiting the aquarium.

An excellent attraction with a huge array of marine life. There are lockers that accept one euro or one pound coins. But they get used up quickly so try to arrive early. The giant mantaray is the highlight but there are various outstanding examples of marine life from sharks to seals, jellyfish, and much more. Be warned, there are two main sections, so you might want to arrive early and do one side before lunch at the excellent onsite restaurant. Overall, it takes around 3 - 4hrs to get round unless you want to rush through! The aquarium is also an educational resource, and has a lot on conservation and the changing world.

Aquarium Nausicaa offers a large collection of marine life, making it a worthwhile visit for nature enthusiasts. The exhibits are well-presented (French and English) and provide educational insights into the ocean's ecosystems and the importance of conservation efforts. However, it's worth noting that the admission fee is relatively high. Parking options are available in nearby garages, but on weekends, the area can get quite crowded, which is to be expected. Overall, Aquarium Nausicaa provides an immersive journey into the underwater world, despite some considerations regarding pricing and weekend crowds.

Incredible aquarium. Easily the best one I've been to in France, and even rivals some I've been to in the US. The large tank which houses the stingrays and sharks and whatnot was definitely the highlight of the aquarium, I could have stayed there for hours just watching. Overall the aquarium was a great experience, lots to see and would definitely go back. Went on a Monday and there was hardly anybody there, with no wait line to get in.

Lovely place for a visit, you need around 4 to 5 hours to see everything, the exhibits are wonderful and well spaced out, the large tank is amazing and we spent nearly an hour just watching all of the fish there.

Loved it . We bought tickets in advance online and no issues to get in. Nice place, very well looked after. A lot of interesting information and visual presentation.

The most amazing aquarium I have ever seen. The centre care about their animals !! The place is massive and such great exhibits from different areas of the world.

One of the best aquarium I have done. Kids were mesmerised and it was uged. We spend at least 3h in there. Lots of fun.

A cathedral very close to my heart. It is peaceful and spiritual. There is a holy vibe I can’t explain in words.

Every day view on the cathedral in Boulogne, awesome with the new lights! thank you Mr Mayor, very cool

We didn't actually go in the cathedral on this particular visit as we had a day trip to France and went on to Berck, however we did have a very nice coffee in one of the many coffees dotted around Boulogne old town. It's well worth a visit, typically French and all of the bars and cafes in this area were very friendly and accomodating! The cathedral itself is beautiful and surrounded by lovely gardens. There was some sort of flower display/festival going on during our visit which was great to see. There's plenty of free parking around the outside of the old town and everything is easily accessible. Be aware that some of the streets are fairly steep if you have buggies or wheelchairs, but there are not many steps so is still accessible to all. There are also plenty of toilets in case you get caught short, but I highly recommend popping into one of the cafes for a coffee and using their facilities - one of the nicest coffees I've tasted and very reasonably priced!

Amazing piece of history, well kept. If you are visiting the Castle as well a combined ticket is cheaper.

Beautiful cathedral on a grand scale. It is well worth a visit to see the lovely decorations. Standing below the spectacular dome on a sunny day is amazing!

The dome within and outside of this remarkable building is impressive. Inside it’s amazing to stand directly underneath and wonder how they built such things in the day. This area of Old Boulogne is wonderful to walk around with cafes and shops to visit. The ramparts are impressive as great for walking the dogs. Well worth a hour of your time to visit and parking is available right in the centre of the old town behind the notre dame building and within the city walls.

This place was stunning I'm not a religious person but I enjoyed the aura of the cathedral

Absolutely breathtaking. Stunning inside and out.

A beautiful place! You can walk around here and see the biggest have of Europe. There are a lot of restaurants and the nature is stunning. You can walk from here to Wimereux as well. This path is beautiful. Enjoy!

An excellent choice for a maximum of 4 days to swim and enjoy a small but beautiful French city. Everything is very local, cheap and beautiful, but also touristy. Considering what we eat in Paris is very ordinary, this is a great place to eat real French Croissants and all kinds of bakery desserts. Parking was mostly free all around the city. About 4 hours to Paris

Whenever we want to explore some places, we always find the nearest beach because we love to feel the sand on our feet, the sounds of waves, the breeze of wind.. This place is beautiful ❤️

The beach was amazing in the day I went there. It isn’t so busy there at all. The weather is amazing and the sand is just perfect. Barely any rocks on the sand. Wheelchair access is available there.

Nice beach with fine pale sand. It was pretty clean, I think they clean it regularly. There are two playgrounds, one for younger children and it is enclosed, the other one for bigger children. It was quite nice but the view is not the best of you look on the left. This said it is conveniently located and just outside the Nausicaa center, so it can be a nice stop to relax after your visit.

Visited boulogne-sur-mer in October and my fingers nearly froze to death...definitely bring gloves for the cold months. The beach is beautiful for a European beach, and I'd love to come back in the summer. The cliffs surrounding the beach make for a scenic backdrop. It could be the set of a movie to be honest. Watch out for what the tide comes in if you go exploring. And bring waterproof shoes

Lovely beach for people that like very calm beaches. As never gets very deep and it is quite flat ( not.very wavy) lots of shops and coffee.aroud and excellent services. Lockers toilets, etc. In the evening you can walk around and found starfish and other sea creatures and if is only ten km.from Belgium, so you can takeba bike and cross the border!

(Translated by Google) Very nice walk around the old town! The view from certain places is magnificent to see! Very nice to do, very quiet to be in a city. (Original) Hele mooie wandeling rond de oude stad! Het uitzicht op bepaalde plekken is magnifiek om te zien! Heel gezellig om te doen, heel rustig ook om toch in een stad te zijn.

There are different entrances and exits into the old town (Original) Ein sehr schöner Rundweg auf der alten Stadtmauer mit einem sehr schönen Ausblick über die Stadt.

(Translated by Google) Great walk, full of history... take a tour of the ramparts for the people of Boulogne.. (Original) Super promenade,chargée d'histoire...faire le tour des remparts pour les Boulonais..

(Translated by Google) Beautifully maintained walking paths on the city wall. With fantastic views of the new and old city while you walk through a piece of nature.

(Translated by Google) Very pretty site of Boulogne-sur-Mer, the old town and its ramparts. Cathedral, museum, walks, shops (Original) Très joli site de Boulogne-sur-Mer, la vieille ville et ses remparts. Cathédrale, musée, balades, commerces

Beautifully laid out with great lighting, so much to see. It's amazing that it isn't more publicised in the cathedral but we discovered it via Google!

The crypt under the Basilica is a real historical gem. Very well preserved and maintained the crypt is filled with colourful murals and paintings. It is worth a visit.

It is NOT that big so make sure to buy à combiticket to visit the Château as well. Carefull: crypte is closed on monday & château on tuesdays

Absolutely superb place to visit,your allowed to get up close to a lot of the exhibits and artefacts unlike some museums. Very informative,well laid out and excellent value for money. I certainly intend to visit again.

Fascinating place. The Basilica itself is - in my opinion - Ugly, built in the 19th century, nothing of interest in it. BUT it was built on the foundation of a Roman Church, itself built on the walls of a Roman fort connected to the Castle less than 200 yards away. What you visit here are the caves and subterranean crypt under the basilica, and you'll feel the connection between ages from the lowest level of the High Roman Empire fort up to the 14th century structures. With a great assortment of sculpture wall paintings and a treasure of religious artefacts. Well worth the visit. Buy your ticket jointly with the Castle visit and you'll save 2 Euros.

An amazing piece of history, sensitively presented, and far larger than I expected. Definitely worth visiting.

Certainly very big. Very interesting too. Cheap fee to see for what they have to show. Your visit will also help fund the need restorations to the Basilica.

Short but interesting experience with wonderful architecture.

Very impresive under the Building corridors

Old Boulogne. Very pretty. Parking nearby. Cobbled streets. Restaurants and cafés nearby.

The Château de Boulogne-sur-Mer is a fascinating historical site with a rich past. The museum housed within offers a diverse collection that showcases the region's heritage, making it a worthwhile visit for history enthusiasts.

Sólo lo pudimos recorrer por fuera, porque está en reparación. Muy bello! (Translated by Google) We could only go through it on the outside, because it is under repair. Very beautiful!

Very nice closed city wall market within a nice town. Plenty on offer from your typical tourist items such as miniature Eiffel Towers and Champs Elysees to fruit and veg stalls too. Recommend anyone to visit :)

Great collection of antic artefacts of late civilizations, such as pharaonic, greek and roman - private donators. Interesting temporary exhibition on satirical Napoleon

Beautiful place would definitely go again and again. So much history - very enjoyable and relaxed atmosphere.

Interesting museum collection ranging from Egyptian artefacts to French paintings from different periods, for kids under 18 enterance for free... interesting & educational for all ages.

One of the few castles that appears to be, has been preserved in its original state...

Excellent museum, with a lot of Items from different continents to see. An historical and geografical approach.

Amazing museum/ Castle, don't forget to go downstairs to see the original brickwork and wishing well.

A very beautiful place! Must pay a visit!

Beautiful chateau in a beautiful city. Convenient parking on site. Adjacent to walled city with a remarkable cathedral and lots of nearby shops.

Visited this beautiful little square in April as I was passing through France on a day trip. Really bright and colourful and caught me attention for a long time. Theres seating available, and also a cute little duck pond (or so the ducks are plastic lol) but was thoroughly charmed by the whole thing!

Van eind juni tot half oktober wordt de place Godefroy de Bouillon omgetoverd in tal van tijdelijke tuintjes die al uw zintuigen betoveren. Hiëronymus Bosch , de 7 hoofdzonden , de fabels van la Fontaine ... ieder jaar komt er een nieuw avontuur , steeds met een ander thema. In 2022 was het thema muziek Place de la Mairie (Translated by Google) From the end of June to mid-October, place Godefroy de Bouillon is transformed into numerous temporary gardens that will enchant all your senses. Hieronymus Bosch, the 7 deadly sins, the fables of la Fontaine... every year there is a new adventure, always with a different theme. In 2022 the theme was music Place de la Mairie

Beautiful little green area, which is surrounded by lovely restaurants. It's definitely worth visiting. However be careful on the benches. They are slippery and our son ended up in a&e with a large cut on his head from slipping off and landing on the metal path edging.

A lovely garden with a musical theme. Places to sit down and relax in the lovely old town of Boulogne-sur-Mer.

Verrassend om dit midden in de stad te ontdekken. Zeer mooi aangelegd en onderhouden. (Translated by Google) Surprising to discover this in the middle of the city. Very nicely landscaped and maintained.

Very well-maintained park in the centre of the old town. Appears to rotate between themes which are very well presented. The theme when we visited was a play on words with vers, ver, verre, vert etc.

Mooie tuin in thema muziekinstrumenten toen wij die bezochten.Je kan hier gratis wandelen en er klinkt klassieke muziek. (Translated by Google) Beautiful garden with musical instruments theme when we visited. You can walk here for free and there is classical music.

In the summer period a nice garden. In 2022 the theme is Music. Very well kept. You can sit, relax and listen to the music.

Beautiful old fortified zone of Boulogne sur Mer. Cathedral and especially the crypt are worth a visit. Several good restaurants!

No explanation in English and the lady who sells The tickets also doesn’t speak english…

Echt de moeite om te bezoeken (Translated by Google) Really worth a visit

Maybe a bit short and small, tour guide was rushing. Good to combine with a bunch of other activities

(Translated by Google) Superb visit, the sympathy of our guide with clear explanations a beautiful dive into the past! Payment by check or cash. (Original) Superbe visite, la sympathie de notre guide avec des explications clairs une belle plongée dans le passé ! Règlement par cheque ou espèces .

(Translated by Google) A representative testimony of the former sailor's quarter of Boulogne-sur-mer. The "Maison de la Beurière" is today a place of remembrance of the history and traditions of fishing in the city. La Beurrière's house is located at number 16 rue du Mâchicoulis (note, it is a steep climb on steep stairs). It was built in 1870 by a 37-year-old sailor. He lived there with his wife, a laborer, and their son who also worked as a sailor. The house was also occupied by another household who lived together thanks to the development of 2 entrances opening onto the street. The first led to the ground floor and the second to the stairs that led upstairs. Perhaps hard to believe, but at times there were 18 people living here together. Excellent explanation (only in French) by a very friendly and pleasant lady for which we thank you. Below, the house is still in its original state. The 2nd floor has become a small museum. Rue du Machicoulis Wednesday and Saturday 10am-11.30am and 2pm-4.30pm Sunday 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM Closed other days. When you take the stairs down you will arrive at the Quai Gambetta where the 2 statues of "Batisse and Zabelle" are located. They are a representation of the 2 giants representing a fishing couple and who open most processions. (Original) Een representatieve getuigenis van de voormalige zeemanswijk van Boulogne - sur -mer. Het " Maison de la Beurière " is vandaag een plaats van herinnering aan de geschiedenis en tradities van de visserij in de stad. Het is op nr 16 rue du Mâchicoulis dat het huis van la Beurrière staat ( let op , het is een stevige klim op steile trappen ) . Het werd in 1870 gebouwd door een 37-jarige zeeman. Hij woonde daar met zijn vrouw , een arbeider , en hun zoon die ook als matroos werkte. Het huis werd ook bewoond door een ander huishouden dat samenwoonde dankzij de ontwikkeling van 2 ingangen die uitkwamen op de straat . De 1ste kwam uit op de begane grond en de 2de op de trap die naar boven leidde. Misschien moeilijk te geloven maar op sommige momenten woonden men hier met 18 mensen samen. Prima uitleg ( enkel in het Frans ) door een zeer vriendelijke en aangename dame waarvoor onze dank . Beneden is het huis nog in originele staat. Het 2de verdiep is een klein museum geworden. Rue du Mâchicoulis Woensdag en Zaterdag 10u-11u30 en 14u-16u30 Zondag 14u-16u30 Andere dagen gesloten. Wanneer u de trappen naar beneden neemt komt u uit op de Quai Gambetta waar de 2 standbeelden staan van " Batisse en Zabelle " . Ze zijn een voorstelling van de 2 reuzen die een vissersechtpaar voorstellen en die de meeste processies openen.

(Translated by Google) The belfry is the oldest building in Boulogne-Sur-Mer and towers above the rest. The belfry is 47 meters high and has overlooked the city since the 12th century. It was ceded to the citizens of the city by Philippe Hurepel, Count of Bouloge (and son of King Philippe Auguste) and, like all belfries, symbolizes common freedom. The belfry forms a confluence with the town hall, which was only added a lot later, in the 18th century. The brick and stone used are a fairly rare combination of materials in Boulogne-Sur-Mer. The two buildings are witnesses to the different architectural styles over the centuries. (Original) Het belfort is het oudste gebouw van Boulogne -Sur-Mer en torent boven de rest uit . Het belfort is 47 meter hoog en kijkt al sinds de 12de-eeuw over de stad uit . Het werd door Philippe Hurepel , Graaf van Bouloge ( en zoon van Koning Philippe Auguste ) aan de burgers van de stad afgestaan en symboliseert, zoals alle belforten , de gemeenschappelijke vrijheid. Het belfort vormt een samenvloeiing met het stadhuis , dat er pas een een pak later , in de 18de-eeuw is aan toegevoegd. De gebruikte baksteen en steen zijn in Boulogne-Sur-Mer een vrij zeldzame materialencombinatie. De twee gebouwen zijn getuigen van de verschillende architectonische stijlen door de eeuwen heen.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful view of the whole city and its surroundings from the top of the belfry. A very interesting guided tour on the occasion of heritage days. I discovered that the belfry had first been a castrum in Roman times then a keep before becoming the guardian of the city's seal and charter and the symbol of communal freedoms. In the ground floor room there are beautiful sculptures of heads from old Boulogne residences. Beautiful tangle of beams and joists on the second and third levels. (Original) Très belle vue sur toute la ville et ses alentours du haut du beffroi. Une visite guidée bien intéressante à l'occasion des journées du patrimoine. J'ai découvert que le beffroi avait d'abord été un castrum à l'époque romaine puis un donjon avant de devenir le gardien du sceau et de la charte de la ville et le symbole des libertés communales. Dans la salle du rez de chaussée de belles sculptures de têtes provenant d'anciennes demeures boulonnaises. Bel enchevêtrement de poutres et de solives au deuxième et troisième niveaux.

(Translated by Google) The stained glass windows are magnificent and provide incredible colors to the colonnades of the church. A great discovery! (Original) Les vitraux sont magnifiques et offrent des couleurs incroyables aux colonnades de l'église. Une belle découverte !

(Translated by Google) Coming here when the church was closed, we couldn't go inside. The outside architecture looked a bit strange (Original) Đến đây lúc nhà thờ đóng cửa, không vào được bên trong, Nhìn kiến trúc bên ngoài hơi lạ

(Translated by Google) The remains of General José de San Martin, Liberator of America, who died in this city, were laid to rest here. (Original) Aqui fueron velado los restos del General José de San Martin, LIbertador de America, quien falleciera en esta ciudad.

Het lijkt alsof het museum gesloten is, maar je moet aanbellen als je naar binnen wilt. De gids spreekt alleen Spaans en wat Frans, maar er liggen beschrijvingen in diverse talen (Frans, spaans, engels, duits en nederlands). (Translated by Google) It looks like the museum is closed, but you have to ring the bell if you want to enter. The guide only speaks Spanish and some French, but there are descriptions in various languages ​​(French, Spanish, English, German and Dutch).

Very interesting and we had a privilege to get a private tour with many explanations about 19th century in Argentina and in France. Viva el Libertador!

Unfortunately we drove 200kmsbto find the museum temprarily closed until February 11th.... My girlfriend from Argentina was looking forward to seeing this place ..

Great place to learn about the history of Argentina and it's relationship with France.

Excellent service . Martin was an excellent host

Memorable.

Casa San Martin

(Translated by Google) Atypical place: a piece of Argentina in the heart of Boulogne sur Mer!

It's free and really exciting! (Original) Lieu atypique : un morceau d'Argentine en plein Boulogne sur Mer ! La dernière maison de José San Martin, héros de la libération sud-américaine contient quelques artefacts de sa vie. Une visite intéressante et la découverte d'un pan historique méconnu .

Great place for good seafood. Everyday a different catch. Fishermen also has different return time. Therefore there is no urgency to visit at opening time. The saying early birds gets the best worm may not be applicable 😅

Excellent place to visit and buy fish and seafood

You could get fresh fish for economy price.I visited around 9am, and there were many kinds of seafood.

Loved it! The interactions among the people there were so wholesome.

Small and very good sorted fish market. Good place to buy fresh and local. The price level is okay, special offers are very low priced. It's worth to have a look. At Sunday's the price seems to be a bit higher, but still good for the quality.

Can't eat seafood, but the other members of my group loved it. Looked very fresh

Very nice place to buy fresh fish and sea food

Just a few booths in a row. If you don't intend to buy, it's not worth a visit

Nice market, good food!

You can certainly buy fresh seafood there, but you have to arrive early if you want the best. The range is not very wide, but will get you started. Colin, merlan, lieu, crabes, encornet, imported shrimp... There's a little produce market that tags along on Sundays.

I hated this place because when we first got there the man said we needed photo ID while pointing at my boyfriend's driving licence. I then specifically asked him did we need anything else to which he said again pointing to the driving licence that we only needed photo ID. So we went back to our flat to get my driving licence only to be turned away again for not having passports. The receptionist took 5 minutes to determine that our photo drivers licences were not acceptable. The same man then took another 5 minutes to reach the same conclusion. This time pointing to both our drivers licences and said these no good. Idiots. Should have said so in the first place. Wasted our time and patrol. Very unwelcoming and ridiculous.

Verry bad. Nothing to drink insite. No bar!! Its all about your money!!

Super
