The aquarium at the tip of the Nordnes peninsula is the city's reliable with-kids move. Penguins, seals, the fjord fish you've been eating all week, and feeding times to build a visit around. Adults without children can have a perfectly nice time here, though it isn't worth crossing town for on its own. What lifts it is the location: the walk out through Nordnes's wooden lanes and back along the shore is half the outing.
