Hunstanton Sea Life Centre
Hunstanton Sea Life Centre
After being devastated by flooding in 2013, the Hunstanton Sea Life Centre is back and better than ever following a £3million refurbishment!
Experience close encounters with all kinds of fascinating sea creatures at this state-of-the-art marine aquarium, including adorable seals, comical penguins and lively otters!
Just some of the exciting things to do at the Hunstanton Sea Life Sanctuary include:
Indoor Rainforest
Experience a slice of the South American rainforest, recreated indoors and complete with a steamy atmosphere and exotic jungle creatures, from poison dart frogs to deadly piranhas!
Underwater Seal Viewing
Watch the sanctuary’s resident seals through an underwater glass window as they swim and play in their wonderful new home!
Seal Hospital
Find out how the seals are cared for in their own hospital, with improved viewing of the seal pups and isolation pens for ‘intensive care’ casualties.
State-of-the-Art Ray Tank
Using the latest acrylic technology, you can really get the full impact of these fascinating creatures through the reversed curved viewing glass.
Meet the Otters
Watch the hilarious antics of these cheeky chappies as they tumble around in their new dive pool, running stream and waterfall.
Interactive Rockpool Experience
Ever wanted to hold a crab or a starfish? Find out what really lives in the rockpools around our coast (and possibly get a little wet!) in the interactive touchpool. Everything in the pool is safe to handle, with experts on-hand to show you how.
Don’t Miss the Feeding Times!
Feeding time is the highlight of the day at Hunstanton Sea Life Centre – for the visitors and the animals!
