Discover the flora and fauna in Reunion island

Already overwhelmed by what they will find along the hiking trails, the curious little ones will still rave observing the flora and fauna of Reunion in some specialized institutions.
The Aquarium de la Réunion, located on the marina of the resort of Saint Gilles les Bains, is a genuine showcase of the underwater life of the Indian Ocean; 600 000 liters of seawater faithfully recreate the different submarine landscapes of the island (coral reefs, volcanic cliffs, deep reef, big blue), where many species representing the marine biodiversity of Reunion evolve. Indeed several basins host 500 fish and 200 species of the reef life of the island.
Another way to inform and raise awareness about the importance of preserving the natural environment is to observe the impressive turtles in Saint Leu, or share the knowledge and experiments of the Conservatoire Botanique.
