For the price we paid we were only in the building for 45 min when we felt like we had seen everything and the kids were bored. I would advise choosing somewhere else to spend your hard erned money.

Myself and my hubby visited this attraction in May 2013. It is £16.00 per adult. If your taking kids its best to buy a family ticket. This attraction is great fun for all. Its bigger inside than I was expecting and there are lots of things to see. It quite dark inside so watch yourself. At the time we went... More

A great place for families loads of sea creatures etc to look at, kids enjoyed doing the quiz on the way round, we like the fact that you could get involved and touch the animals overall a great place to visit although perhaps a little expensive.

The sealife is lovely to look at and the shark area is a must, it does get busy and there are touch pools for the children, we spent 3 hours in here and was worth going around, I only have one moan and that is where the steps are, you can lift a buggy up but not an Adult in... More
