Do Android Devices get Malware or viruses by just "entering a website"

Title is self explanatory. Basically I went on a website with loads of pop up ads, scan for virus stuff and other suspicious stuff. I didn't click on them but I want to ask if by just clicking on a weird website, can you get malware or a virus on an android phone? I researched but all I find is that the only dangerous thing that can get you a virus or malware is downloading something outside of google play store or mainly on the web. Or am I just a very paranoid person. Replies are much...
