Dive into the fascinating world of little-known marine organisms in our Plankton Mini-Lab. Observe real marine organisms under a microscope and touch objects straight from the ocean in this exhibition on Level 1 (basement) of the Biodôme.

Explore the exhibition as a family like real scientists and see the invisible world come to life before your eyes.

Short special activities are offered in the Mini-Lab, where you can move like plankton and observe them under a microscope.
