Really enjoyed this Sea Life. Wasn’t expecting it to be so open after visiting a couple other indoor ones. Really liked the animals and hearing lots of interesting facts about them during their feeds. Can definitely spend all day here, especially if the weather is nice.

Brilliant day out for young kids. My 6 and 1 year old had an amazing time here. So many things to do and see. My son lost a teddy around the park and the staff were very comforting to him and gave us a replacement at the gift shop, excellent customer service! Definitely be coming back

Big shout out to Harry at the rock pool station - he was really engaging and informative, and made that part of the visit really stand out. Possibly the best SEA LIFE Centre I’ve been to. I’d highly recommend it. One thing to note is that a lot of it is outdoors. The site is laid out with painted footprints guiding you through all 15 stations, so there’s no need to check a map or worry about missing anything. It’s fine on a slightly gloomy day, but if it’s pouring with rain you’ll get wet, as some areas (like parts of the seals, penguins, and otters) are uncovered. We loved that it felt a bit different from a standard SEA LIFE Centre, while still having all the essentials - including a (slightly smaller) shark tunnel. There’s a great variety of animals too. Our favourites were the Fairy/Little Penguins, the octopus, the sea dragons, and of course the rock pool area. The playground looked great and is right next to the café and toilets, with picnic benches - ideal for families. There are also interactive elements and a scratch-off quiz, which made it more engaging. We visited as a three-generational group on a gloomy Sunday afternoon during the Easter holidays and it was very quiet. We stayed about 2 hours, but could easily have spent longer in better weather. Tip: book 2+ days in advance for the best price. Pay-and-display car park next door. Would happily go again.

I visited the sealife centre with my partner and we had a great time. There’s lots of information in the different sections which is simple and easy to read + windows into tanks lower down for little ones. The toilets were decently clean and the staff are lovely. We watched a good talk about the seals. Would totally recommend.

I recently visited Sealife Centre Weymouth and had a fantastic time. It’s a great day out for families, couples, or anyone who enjoys marine life. The centre is well laid out, clean, and easy to explore, with a wide variety of sea creatures to see. The highlight of my visit was definitely the otter feeding experience. Getting up close and helping to feed the otters was such a fun and memorable experience. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt involved and comfortable. You can really tell they care about the animals and are passionate about what they do. I would absolutely recommend paying extra for the animal feeding experience – it’s worth it and makes the visit even more special. Overall, a really enjoyable day out and I would happily visit again!
