Aquaworld Aquarium

Aquaworld Aquarium

Aquaworld Aquarium is a museum in Hersonissos, Heraklion, Crete, Greece. Founded in 1995, Aquaworld is an individual, private effort created by Scot John McLaren. The majority of the animals on display are either rescued or were unwanted pets which now have a home in this caring environment. The philosophy of Aquaworld is simple - by bringing people and animals close together it is hoped to encourage interest in the creatures themselves and in their natural habitat. Aquaworld is open daily from 1st April until 31st October each year.
