At Fjärilshuset Haga Ocean you can experience life below and above the surface. Discover a world filled with color, beauty and nature. Enjoy wandering among free-flying butterflies in tropical greenhouses. Discover the enchanting mating dance of butterflies and if you're lucky, watch a butterfly hatch and take its first wing.

Check out our fascinating reef sharks. Colorful reef fish swim alongside the reef sharks in the 30-meter tank that holds 1.2 million liters of water.

You can then have a coffee or light lunch at our café. We look forward to your visit and we can guarantee you an unforgettable experience.
