Fin-tastic !! - Enjoyable trip to sealife with my teenagers. They loved seeing all the fish. Highlight for them was the turtle swimming above their heads in the tunnel. Even managed a fleeting glimpse of an otter (my son’s favourite animal). Lots of tanks to look at. Would recommend and would visit again.

Lovely sensory experience for babies - Lovely experience for my 6 month old. So many colours and fish for him to look at! The whole place is pram friendly with plenty of room to get around and lifts to get the full experience so nothing is missed. Staff are friendly and helpful and very informative. Bought a lovely picture keyring and magnet ( the picture packages are a bit pricey) but is a lovely memory. Will definitely be taking baby again when he is a bit older

Lovely visit - We had a lovely time at sea life Birmingham, lots of great fish, sharks, manta rays and a huge old turtle , my only disappointment was no axolotls, I had read an article saying they had them, they are my grandsons favourite and would have made the visit prefect, had a problem with booking the VR online , the young lady running this today , was so patient and kind and finally got 2 tickets,

Not possible to see all Sea creatures - Disappointed. We went at 10.20 but some animals are only on view at set times during the day and this wasn’t when we were there so didn’t see all animals . Surely the should be visible all day if people are paying to see them .

Disappointment - I'm sorry to say that, but we were really disappointed. Some of tanks were in a bad shape, have a lot of scratches, water in some of them was murky. We saw dead corals and anemones, a lot of plastic plants in tanks. The building itself needs to repaired as water is leaking in many places. For this experience we paid 30 pounds per person. The Bristol Aquarium is much better and for reasonable price.

Alright, probably not worth the money. - Took our 1 year old for his birthday. Have to pay extra for anytime entry. Unfortunately tying a one year old down to 10 minutes is near impossible! There were quite a few empty tanks and some construction going on, which took away from the experience. The otters were not really out and could only be seen via a webcam. Overall he enjoyed it as it's quite sensory, but it's certainly not worth £60 we paid. We were out and done in an hour. There was no where to get a coffee or sit down to give little one lunch Overall it's probably not worth the money.

Don't waste your money - Very disappointing, it cost us £80 for 2 adults and a 2yr old, we trued to use coupons from cereal packet but they would not accept them at weekends. Took 40 mins to go around. A lot of the tanks were empty, no sea otters to view. The whole place seemed very run down and grubby. Not worth the money.
