Getting to Bergen Aquarium

There are many ways to get to Bergen Aquarium. You will find us at Nordnesbakken 4.

Get directions

On foot

It takes 15 to 20 minutes to walk from Torgallmenningen to the tip of Nordnes, where we are located. The walk from the city centre takes you past several historical sights, including the statue of Amalie Skram and the totem pole, a gift from Seattle to Bergen in 1970. Nordnes is also known for its narrow streets and charming old houses.

By bus

Take bus line 11 to the Aquarium. You can board at stops in the city centre such as Kong Oscars gate, Småstrandgaten C, Olav Kyrres gate J and Veiten. Get off at Sjøfarendes aldershjem, less than 100 metres from the Aquarium. The bus runs in a loop, so after your visit you board at the same stop where you got off.

By car

You can drive via Markeveien and Haugeveien, or via C. Sundts gate. The nearest car park is NordnesGarasjen at Nordnesgaten 46. Note: the maximum height is 1.8 metres.

Other car parks nearby are Klostergarasjen at Vestre Murallmenningen 14 and City-Park at Markeveien 7.
