"One of the most spectacular aquariums in the world, The Deep is located in Hull, East Yorkshire and is home to aquatic animals an including magnificent sharks and rays. The building, which overlooks the Humber estuary, was designed by world class architects, Sir Terry Farrell and Partners and opened in 2002.The Deep operates as an education/conservation charity and has become an international player in marine conservation. It is also the most commercially successful Millennium Project.The Deep receives no on-going revenue funding and is therefore totally dependent upon ticket sales and income from the on-site shop & café to cover the costs of running the project and carrying out its education, conservation & research work."

What a great aquarium and museum! Kids absolutely loved the cute penguins. The big tank was really impressive, from all the angles as you walk through all the floors of the building. We didn't get to use the elevator with a view, but staircase did just the job. And even better I think as we had more time to look at the fish from every floor. Café upstairs has amazing view over harbour. Plenty of toilets and seating areas, all very clean and tidy. Staff everywhere happy to answer questions and tell kids lots of interesting facts. Lots of interactive tables and screens. Gift shop has a lot of stuff too. We couldn't get time slot to come in online, but they were happy to sell tickets once we have arrived at the desk. Tickets are valid for 12 months after any amount of visits after the initial one. Definitely place to bring kids for couple of hours!
Really cool experience that our kids 3 and 1 both really enjoyed. We both enjoyed it as the parents too! Lots of very interesting fish to see as well as lots of information/educational displays. The cafe wasn't great, but the experience itself is very good. The entry fee also includes any number of returns within a year.
Was shocked at how much I paid to get in but apparently I can visit as often as I like for a year! Fantastic place, plenty to learn and many species to see. Main attraction are the sharks which don’t disappoint. The tunnel is very short but the view is great. Plenty to do for children of all ages. Gift shop full of toys at average prices. I didn’t try the cafe but it looked good. Would definitely recommend a visit. Without food I would say 3 hours was enough for me but with smaller children I would give it 4 - 5 hours. Beware, parking isn’t free! Foolishly I didn’t notice
The deep is a gem on the coast. You will need to take a day to go around here as there are 100s of different interactive exhibitions to go along side the tanks. It's amazing to have a museum like this outside of London honestly and it really is a great reason to visit Hull. I highly recommend this museum 5 stars.
Excellent quality aquarium positioned on the Humber just down from the bridge. Good size car park but you do have to pay £3 even with a full price ticket. Lots to see and interactive with inside, nicely laid out with plenty of space, clean tanks and happy looking fish! The main tank is pretty amazing and they make the most of it with plentiful ways to view it including a glass bubble elevator ride at the end! Good cafe with hot and cold food plus a brilliant, well stocked gift shop on the exit. We stayed 3 hours including a quick cafe stop. Highly recommended.
Me and my friend had a phenomenal time at this aquarium, entering easily after our tickets were processed and we followed the animal signs to the actual entrance! There is a wide variety of sea creatures on display, including piranhas, penguins and sharks. A lift goes right through the shark tank that was an amazing experience and other creatures can be seen too, as well as fossils!
Such a great place for a family visit. Staff @ counter are very helpful and cheerful. My both children and their Grandparents enjoyed the visit thoroughly. A lot more species, and bigger aquarium then some of the Sea Life aquariums. Plenty of mobility aids avail for free hire, rest room facilities across the floors, and interactive shows for kids/family. The topfloor restaurant has a limited menus but a great hot food and stunning views. "Gift Aid admission ticket" gives a year free entry to aquarium for no additional cost - Kids will love to re-visit.
Great family day out at a reasonable price whatever the weather. We have now visited the Deep twice as a family and both times we have really enjoyed it. The penguins were definitely our favourite. I highly recommended this for a great days entertainment.
Beautiful aquarium, best place I have ever been to so far. There are tons of floors and animals, ranging from tiny jelly babies to great exotic sharks! The parking costs £1 from 6pm - 6am & £3 from 6am - 6pm. We had no troubles finding a space to park. Inside the aquarium, you can find lots of information boards, telling you lots of things about that specific type of animal, a Gift Shop, and also a variety of fish, penguins & other exotic animals. I 100% recommend this aquarium to anyone as it contains both stairs and lifts for anyone to use.
We really enjoyed The Deep. The range of fish is impressive, many I didn't know about. And there are sharks! And there are penguins! The information on how life evolved was easy to understand too. Your ticket allows you to visit as many times as you like in the next year. We'll be coming back for sure.
