Mohammed MohannaOctober 19, 2014You should encounter the huge yellow turtle and must visit the amazing jellyfish area, very beautiful. The tickets are little bit expensive tho- DanielApril 13, 2016A nice little family day out, the kids love it. Get your hand stamped so you can go out for lunch and come back anytime up to 4pm.
- Sony Mobile WTAMay 27, 2011Take the plunge, visit this nature centre and see the UK’s first hammerhead sharks, huge turtles, rays and a lot more. Little bit pricey but you might be lucky to get a voucher from a local paper.
Jess CMay 7, 2014Worth a visit. Look out for vouchers or book online to save money. No cafe anymore. Park in Brindleyplace as it's nearer than NIA.
Jaqui GillardAugust 25, 2012Fantastic family day out. Admittedly way too packed in the summer holiday but still had fun. The Otters are adorable! <3
Evita SmiteFebruary 8, 2014Loved it.. Cant wait to go back at easter and see penguins ^^ and 4d sponge bob cartoon was awesome ^^
Jamie GarnerApril 16, 2018Great place but the toilets by the gift shop seem to be forever closed so remember to use the ones by the main entrance

It's the best part of the day :)
Christian GittingsMay 19, 2015Come and see sharks and fish of the sea close up, it's like walking on the sea bed
Lera IvanovaFebruary 10, 2013Find out feeding hours and enjoy the show ;) it is really worth it. Have fun ;))
Azri JohariDecember 24, 2011Check out the small thing near the jellyfish, u can see a tiny shrimp.. And it is awesome
Donna WhitehouseAugust 15, 2011Brilliant! Highly recommend getting the annual pass only £36 two visits and you've paid for it!
Sandra RutterOctober 26, 2017Extremely expensive, nice but had to drag my grandsons round for a second go otherwise we’d seen enough in 90 mins, and they were bored! No cafe just vending machines. Dragged this out - 3 hours max
Ash BlagdonJanuary 16, 2011The 4D Cinema is a good laugh and you have to see the Hammerhead Shark's.
Melissa DickinsonJuly 20, 2010It's brilliant venue for pleasure and also now available to hire as a corporate hospitality event!
Daniel RowbottomJanuary 27, 2013No cafe here and bring plenty of change as the change machines do not work!
Michelle MyersJune 6, 2012This has to be the worst place to come in half term! Far too many visitors allowed in, trapped in an enclosed one way circuit - no cafe, snack machines broken. Pure hell!
Stuart MillardFebruary 14, 2012If you don't have kids, avoid half term. I, unfortunately, have no choice!
Helen HodgkinsonMay 6, 2012Expensive for what it is. Try to get deals rather than paying full price.
