Staff at the Aquarium welcomed visitors back on Saturday 4th July. They were pleased to see people enjoying their visits and taking note of all the new measures in place. Staff have worked incredibly hard to ensure that your visit is as exciting as possible and from the feedback we have received, visitors really are having a great experience!
Our fish have missed our visitors during the 3 months we were closed, not having that stimulation from our visitors meant that our fish were a little lonelier than usual. Our team on site made sure to pay them all a little extra attention during this time, however, now we are open, they are happy to see all those smiling faces!
For your safety and ours, we have put into place the following measures:-
COVID-19 Measures
