Overview
SEA LIFE Brighton offers a fun and educational day out whatever the weather. You will be taken on a fascinating journey through the original Victorian architecture of the oldest operating aquarium in the world, from the coastline to the depths of the ocean. Here is a magical underwater world, filled with a dazzling array of amazing creatures. As well as being able to ride in the UK's first indoor glass-bottom boat, visitors will also be able to take a behind-the-scenes tour, join in with an interactive rockpool experience where they can touch crabs and starfish, and immerse themselves in the brand new area, Secrets of the Reef. Dive in and discover the tropical paradise of a Maldives reef. Meet residents like the regal tang clownfish, and get closer than ever before in the crawl-through tunnel. There are free talks and feeds throughout the day. NB: An additional charge applies for the boat and Behind the Scenes tour.
