The San Sebastián Aquarium, also known as Palacio del Mar, goes well beyond fish tanks — it dives deep into Basque maritime history, with fascinating exhibits on the region's whaling and fishing industries and stunning ship models spanning centuries. The whole place has a genuinely educational feel without being dry about it, taking you through local sea life alongside the cultural story of how this coastline shaped the people who lived on it. Definitely worth more time than you'd expect.
