More Information
If you are looking for a fun and educational family outing, you should definitely visit the National Marine Aquarium in Plymouth, the largest aquarium in the UK!
You will be amazed by the variety and beauty of the marine life on display, from colourful corals and tropical fish to majestic sharks and turtles. You will also learn about the importance of ocean conservation and how you can help protect this vital ecosystem.
The aquarium has seven zones to explore, each with its own theme and exhibits. You can watch the daily dive shows, where divers feed the fish and answer your questions. You can also join the free educational workshops and talks, where you can discover more about the amazing animals and their habitats.
The highlight of the aquarium is the Atlantic Ocean tank, which is the deepest in Britain and holds 2.5 million litres of water. Here you can see Snorkel, the friendly green turtle, swim alongside sharks, rays and other ocean giants. You can even book a sleepover with the sharks, where you can spend the night in front of the huge glass window and watch them glide by.
The National Marine Aquarium is not only a great attraction, but also a charity that supports ocean research and conservation projects. By visiting the aquarium, you are helping to fund their work and make a difference for the future of our oceans. Plus, your ticket comes with a free annual pass, so you can come back as many times as you want for a whole year!
