SEA LIFE Brighton

SEA LIFE Brighton holds the remarkable distinction of being the oldest continually operating aquarium in the world, first opening its doors in 1872. Situated on Brighton's famous seafront, this iconic Victorian-era attraction is home to over 5,000 marine creatures, including resident sea turtles Lulu and Gulliver, sharks, jellyfish, seahorses, and clownfish, displayed across a variety of themed zones including a rainforest adventure area. Visitors can glide over a 750,000-litre ocean tank aboard a glass-bottomed boat, explore interactive rockpools, handle ray and shark eggs, and enjoy a range of animal encounter experiences. A truly historic and engaging destination for families, school groups, and marine life enthusiasts, SEA LIFE Brighton combines natural history with modern interactive exhibits at the heart of one of England's most vibrant seaside cities.
