BY CAR
Nordnes parking garage “NordnesGarasjen” is only a few steps away. NB! Only available for cars below 1,8 meters.
For wheelchair users – How to get here:
The aquarium is located in the city center, about a 15-minute walk from the Tourist Information at the Fish Market/ Torgalmenningen. However, the scenic route includes cobblestone streets, which can be challenging for wheelchair users. Alternatively, taking the car route provides pavements, though some sections may pose difficulties in accessing and exiting the pavement, similar to other parts of the city center. If you arrive by car or taxi, you can be dropped off right in front of the stair-free entrance. Navigating during winter when the roads might have snow and ice are not recommended.
