Oceanarium

The Oceanarium really is a great addition to Bournemouth's seaside setting. It's literally right on the beach, and allows you to explore the life that lives yonder! There's fish in there that really look nothing like fish, you do wonder if they could be done under the trade descriptions act, although of course they can't, because they aren't doing any kind of trade, they're just there - swimming in a tank. One fish says to the other - how do you drive this thing?

Anyway, back to the review, take the kids, it's a lovely place to visit - probably not quite a 'day out' but at least a decent afternoon. Price is perhaps a little on the dear side but then it is right on Bournemouth seafront and aimed at tourists so I guess you pay for the privelage.

Anyone of any age will enjoy the Oceanarium. It isn't huge by any means but there is so much inside, it'll take you a good while to go around. Great on rainy days as there isn't a great deal in town to do when the sun doesn't shine. The glass tunnel underneath the sharks is always really cool!

This attraction is first rate. It's located right by the pier in Bournemouth and it's as much fun as it is fascinating. Perfect for kids but equally intriguing for adults. An excellent attraction!
