Such a hidden gem. Loved all the displays and aquariums. Sea horses and puffer fish were a favourite. We went as a huge group. The owners were very accommodating and everyone in our group really enjoyed the experience. Thanks for making our visit special.

Brilliant in every way! The staff member was extremely passionate and knowledgeable about the sea creatures here! It is colourful and interesting, with hands on activities and a gorgeous gift shop. Highly recommended!

What a little hidden gem. What appears to be a small shop from the front selling shells and all things related to the sea is actually a really and interactive area with fish tanks and fun and interactive things to see and do. The staff are extremely passionate about their jobs and explained a ton of interesting facts about how all the different sea creatures in the tanks look after each other and help to keep the tanks clean. We all loved the experience and will be back again. Then we popped into the cafe next door, run by the same people and had a lovely coffee and a cookie.

We recently had a Mermaid Party at the cave and it was such a fun experience. The girls loved the special mermaid, there were so many giggles at her cute jokes - great fun all around. The hosts Georgia and Sasha were so easy going too.. thank you we will be back for more Mermagic in the future. 🧜‍♀️
