People buy the Valencia Tourist Card for the Oceanogràfic. It gets them ten per cent off, and nothing more.
What entry costs
There is no single price. The operator publishes a seasonal grid: roughly €35.90 to €38.30 in low season, €37 to €39.45 in mid, and €41.80 to €43.05 in high season. Its own shop advertises a floor price “from €31” on the quietest dates. Children 4–12, over-65s and visitors with 33% disability pay roughly €26.65 to €31.95.
The gap people notice between quoted prices is the calendar, not the channel. No separate door surcharge is published.
Ten per cent off a €43.05 ticket is €4.31. A 24-hour card costs €15.30. The card’s real value is transport — including the airport metro — not the aquarium.
Included, and not
The dolphin presentations are included. Paid extras: the 4D cinema €3, Sea ARK €5, “The sea in your hands” €7, digital audio guide €4, backstage tour €12. Under-4s free.
Booking and timing
Not mandatory — the ticket office sells same-day and closes an hour before the aquarium. But every ticket is date- and session-specific: you pick an access time and may enter from then until closing.
Closing times swing wildly by date, from 16:00 to 22:00, and some dates are closed altogether. The operator’s calendar is the only authority — a blanket “open 365 days” claim is not supported by it.
On access: ramps and lifts throughout, and wheelchairs are loaned free against a refundable €10 deposit at the Information Point. Note that the neighbouring Hemisfèric’s lift is currently out of service, with a phone number posted for anyone who needs it.
