Aquatopia is a popular educational attraction in central Antwerp, Belgium.

The multi-story attraction is located on Koningin Astridplein, opposite Antwerpen-Centraal railway station, and one block from the city's primary bus terminals at Franklin Rooseveltplaats. It has 1,000,000 litres (220,000 imp gal; 260,000 US gal) of water.
