Children's birthdays
Two scavenger hunts, two worlds… which one are you ready to take on?
Are you between 6 and 12 years old and want to celebrate your birthday? Then come and blow out your candles at the Aquarium-Muséum!

A treasure hunt for your birthday
With your friends and family, spend an unforgettable Saturday or Sunday "among the fish". An animator will take you on a treasure hunt full of adventures and twists, lasting around 1h30. You can choose between two adventures, so pick your favorite scenario!
A baby clownfish has disappeared
Catastrophe! The host has just discovered that a baby clownfish has disappeared from his aquarium. It seems that one egg hatched earlier than the others, without anyone noticing! The little one has probably gone off to explore the surrounding area... So we've got to find it and get it home before anything happens to it.
With your friends, form a search party to find him! Don't hesitate to ask the fish in nearby aquariums for help. And if you don't understand what the fish are saying, ask the animator to translate for you, because yes, our animator has a magical power: he speaks "fish" fluently!
In search of Captain Beneden's treasure
Hey matey! Today you become a real pirate! Captain Beneden has lost his treasure in the aquarium... and he's counting on you to find it.
But how do you go about it? Easy (well, almost): you'll have to solve the riddles hidden among the fish. Each riddle will help you recover a piece of the treasure map. Once you've collected all the pieces, you'll finally discover where the treasure is hidden!
Your adventure begins with a mysterious parchment:
"Dearest shipmate, Captain Beneden has lost his treasure... If you can find it, you'll become the official pirate of his crew!"
So, are you ready for a treasure hunt full of surprises, riddles and laughter? Captain Beneden is waiting for you!
After the entertainment, it's time to cut your birthday cake in the room reserved for you (cakes, drinks and cutlery not provided).
