We thought this place was a bit pricey for what is there. Two rooms of tanks. On the day we visited they were giving away free food to feed the fish, so this entertained the kids for about 20 minutes. I think normally it's an extra charge for fish food. I'd have been very disappointed if we hadn't got the fish food included. The kids were happy though!
A cute aquarium, with an interesting concept in that they only have native species found around the Dorset coast, and most are bycatches from the fishing boats. It was very cool seeing the different species of native, local species! It's very small, takes a maximum 10-15 minutes to get round, I liked the smaller tanks and signage, all the tanks were spotless. Though the big tanks looked a bit sterile and overstocked, there wasn't much in them over than fish. As said, I believe it's a lot of species caught as bycatch, it might have been good to see more species that are locally caught and eaten too, like mussels, flat fish species etc.nnThe fish feeding was free today not sure why, but normally its £3 per person. The staff were really friendly and I enjoyed the guy's talk he did on the starfish and urchins, he was very engaging, knowledgeable and had some interesting facts. My only gripe is the entry price, I feel £10pp £13 if you do the feeding for the size of the aquarium is pretty overpriced. Also, I'm not sure how I feel about the fish feeding and starfish holding granted its in a shell but you still touch it etc., the 'poke and stroke' vibes doesn't feel very considerate towards the welfare of these animals and can be detrimental to their health long term. Though the staff did say the starfish and other animals bar the fish you feed actually get returned to the sea and replaced every so often so that mitigates some of the concern if so.
What an experience!! This place is 100% recommend. It's small BUT it's absolutely amazing. I got to feed some grey mullet which I could of done all day to be honest and the sea life and videos at the end were so good. I recommend to visit
We had a wonderful time. I took my four year old and she was thrilled to hand feed the fish and hold a starfish. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable, it was a real joy. It’s a tiny aquarium but super sweet and a great source of information about sea life in the local area. A highlight of our trip!
A bit of a small Aquarium with only two rooms but such a great experience for our little ones, especially when they had the chance to feed the fish or touch a starfish.nnStaff was absolutely great with us and the fact that you could’ve spent as much time as you wanted inside it was a bonus as it rained for a while .nnGood value for money too !
