Brest Attractions - Things to do
Oceanopolis
Perfect for a rainy day, or to occupy children, Brest’s aquarium is around three kilometres east of the town centre, and has a superb collection of seals, crabs, penguins, and sharks. The tanks are arranged in three themed pavilions; tropical, polar and temperate.

Le Musée des Phares et des Balises
The Lighthouse and Beacon museum is located on the Ile d’Ouessant, just of the coast from Brest, and tells the story of the nearby Phare de Creac’h, the world’s most powerful lighthouse. The lighthouse beams two white flashes every ten seconds and is visible for fifty kilometres. It guides the fifty thousand ships that enter the Channel every year. The museum also has interesting exhibitions on shipwrecks and under water archaeology.
