Here it is possible to see the flora and fauna of the world's seas and oceans gathered in aquariums, show - cases, dioramas plus plastic expositions of the Baltic's syncline. The Aquarium is in the building of the Marine Fisheries Institute which has been in operation since 1921 (initially in Hel, since 1938 in Gdynia), dealing with fishing biology, oceanography, marine environment and fisheries economics.

„Dar Pomorza" - the most famous Polish training tall ship built in Hamburg in 1909. In 1930 it was bought for the money raised by the Pomeranian nation. She was in the service of the Marine College for 50 years and in 1972 she won all possible prizes in The Cutty Sark Tall Ships Races. She is a three-mast full rigger with a 72,6 m long and 16,6 m wide hull; the masts are 41,4 m tall, the sails surface is about 2 thousand square m. After she retired, the ship was presented with the Central Marine Museum and has been open to public since 1983.
