Congress- und Tourismus-Zentrale NürnbergThe Dolphin Lagoon is a most impressive 5.3 million litre salt water lagoon with a depth of 6 metres and a surface area of 1,100 square metres that has been designed to provide as near a natural habit for its residents. With seating for some 2000 guests this will provide a perfect setting to watch the dolphins and sea lions.
Dolphin Lagoon in the Zoological Garden Nuremberg
The Blaue Salon (Blue Salon) connects the underwater world of the dolphin lagoon, designed as a natural habitat for the creatures, with the manatee house. A 13 metre-long and 4.3 metre-high glass panorama panel provides fascinating views of large dolphins and sea lions under water. The unhurried movements of the sea cows can be observed on the other side of the Blaue Salon.
Five extensive free enclosures, some of the largest in Europe, are a habitat for Californian sea lions, penguins, otters and polar bears.
