Romantic dinner among turtles and sharks
SEA LIFE Porto, the largest aquarium in northern Portugal, is preparing a very special event to celebrate Valentine’s Day. On February 14, starting at 7:30 p.m., it will be transformed into the perfect setting for a romantic and exclusive dinner.
With live music from a guitarist, the dinner will take place in iconic locations such as the “Cave of the Oceans”, the “Bay of Rays” or the “Kingdom of Salacia”. Among turtles, sharks and more, you can enjoy a menu designed with the occasion in mind and an experience for two in the underwater world.

This initiative takes place literally underground, 75 meters below the surface, in one of the 7 Natural Wonders of Portugal. Before dinner lit by hundreds of candles, there’s time for a guided tour to explore the cave’s secrets.
