Interesting experience. Well laud out with informative films and good displays. Nice aquarium and photo opportunities with seals etc.
Small yet educational!
If you have kids or children, this place would be a great place to go. Try to go around 315 or 330 for the feeding.
If you have children this is a must see due to the 4 live seals in the seal pool. You can get pretty close to the seals which is a fun experience. Other than the seals, I did not find the Polaria to be that great.
A museum on Arctic environment, about Life their with main focus on animals/birds of the region there. A reasonable good show put up by the authorities, though the ticket price is high. Staff is courteous. Display of limited version of marine life including training and feeding of Seals. Could have been still better in terms of its contents.
Great museum with nice attractions and a touch pool for some see animals. The seals are a attraction, too.
Only the Souvenir store has nothing polaria exclusive which is a bit sad for collector.
Nice place with cool seal shows and things to see. Recommended visit
A must visit in Tromso. A cool place with a lot of sea animals and seal feeding games every noon. It provides a lot of information about the area around Tromso, as well as about the Arctic in general. I loved the movie that explained the Northern Lights!)
Loved the place. Lots of info and things to see. Seals were fun.
Our daughter really enjoyed the little kids play area. Afterwards we walked through the aquarium exhibits, saw a presentation on the northern lights, and finished up with performance of seals doing tricks and stunts at their feeding time. Well worth while with children for a few hours.
It was very small, as others have said, but that's quite good in a way. Seals feeding was decent but get there at least 15minutes before the show starts or you won't see much. The building itself is a huge draw, and it's perfect for filling a couple of hours.
