SEA LIFE Weymouth

SEA LIFE Weymouth is an aquarium, splash park and adventure playground all wrapped into one - a full family day out in Dorset!

If you're looking for things to do in Weymouth, look no further than this deep-sea adventure. We suggest you make a full day out here because there really are so many things to do in Weymouth's SEA LIFE centre.

The Aquarium

The seas are filled with amazing creatures, both big and small. Meet sharks, turtles, jellyfish, seahorses, rays, otters, octopus, frogs and more.

Be sure to check out the Night & Day Ocean Experience. Experience the 24-hour wonder of a coral reef as it moves from night to day in a re-imagined Ocean Tunnel display. 

Dance along the bio-fluorescent tropical shore and then journey through an underwater tunnel, surrounded by Blacktip Reef Sharks, Green Sea Turtles, and a beautiful array of tropical fish species.

Splash Zone & Pool

The Splash Zone and Pool at Weymouth SEA LIFE Adventure Park provide hours of fun. Dive in and out of the water play jets or take a dip and cool down in the pool. This is perfect for a summer day out! 

Fairy Penguin Island

Walk with the world's smallest penguins and interact with them in a whole new way through their walkthrough island.

Seal Harbour

Meet SEA LIFE Weymouth's cheeky seals!

Some cool facts for you to whet your appetite:

Rockpool

Watch out for the tide! At the Rockpool, you'll find creatures native to the UK including starfish, shore crabs, anemones and sea urchins.

Wetlands

The Wetlands Conservation Trail was designed and developed to encourage native species of wildlife into the Park. Take the little ones on an adventure and see how much wildlife you can spot!

You can even meet the ducks. Duck feeders for scatter and pond food are available for just 20p per handful. And if you're visiting in spring, new arrivals can be found finding their feet on the water. 

Sensory Garden

Awaken your senses and soothe your mind. A sensory garden is all about stimulating and engaging the basic senses of sight, smell, sound and touch.

Explore under the sea

Along the way, you'll encounter some of the world's most incredible animals, including huge sharks, sassy seals, mysterious stingrays, seahorses, the world's smallest penguins and thousands of tropical fish.

Sparkly blue light illuminates the floor as soon as you enter the Night & Day Experience, filling you with awe.

Then, before you know it, the heat of the tropics is sweeping over you like a warm shower.

Leaping among the foliage, you might have already spotted some of the poison dart frogs of the rainforests. But if you haven't, just follow the croaking and you'll be sure to find one. 

Why not stop by Fairy Penguin Island next? Waddling from side to side with their webbed feet, you can see them from the external windows and watch them being fed.

Dorset’s biggest adventure playground

Hear the kids' loud and joyous laughter as they explore Castaway Bay Splash Zone and Pool. The lively water adventure is always a favourite, and we're sure they'll be excited to fill you in on who splashed who all the way back home.

Fancy something a little less wet? Head over to Caribbean Cove!

Let the kids burn off some energy at the outdoor play area as they climb aboard pirate ships and whizz down the awesome slides.

For something a little calmer, kids will love the Sensory Garden. Smell fragrant ginger, rosemary, thyme and mint as you brush your fingers through the diverse plant life and discover how they change colours throughout the seasons.

Listen to the quacking sound from the wandering ducks as you pass through the Wetlands. The little ones will even get the chance to feed them if they'd like. They might even make a new friend as the ducks tend to come right up close.

It won't be long before you're back at SEA LIFE Weymouth, ready to discover even more about the fascinating world below the seas and what wonders lie there.
