    Sea Life to najstarsze stale działające publiczne akwarium na świecie. Będąc w Brighton, po prostu trzeba to zobaczyć! Wizyta w tym miejscu to unikalne doświadczenie, ponieważ nowoczesne wystawy są wkomponowane w XIX-wieczne mury. Przechodząc przez ciemne, nastrojowe korytarze, czujesz się trochę jak w podwodnym zamku. Czas zwiedzania to ok. 1,5 do 2 godzin. Bilety warto kupić wcześniej przez internet - są tańsze niż w kasie na miejscu, a dodatkowo rezerwujesz konkretną godzinę wejścia, co pozwala uniknąć kolejek.

    Very disappointed with our experience at Sea Life Brighton. We arrived just 5 minutes after 4pm and found the doors already closed because apparently 4pm was the last entry slot. Unfortunately we were not able to go inside at all. We travelled all the way from London and planned our day around visiting several attractions in Brighton, which is why we did not book online in advance, as we were not sure about timing. But honestly, having the last entry at 4pm in such a busy tourist city feels completely unreasonable, especially during periods with high visitor numbers.

    I visited SEA LIFE Brighton and had a really lovely experience overall. The aquarium is well presented, clean, and there is a great variety of sea life to see. It’s especially enjoyable for families and anyone interested in marine animals. The only downside is that it felt quite expensive for what it is, especially considering the time you spend inside. However, the experience itself is still very enjoyable and memorable. Overall, I would recommend it, but be aware that the ticket prices are on the higher side.

    We really enjoyed our visit today, especially meeting Dotty the zebra shark and then getting to hold one of her eggs in the rockpool experience. We had come especially to see Udon as my daughter loves octopuses and she really put on a show today. Most of all though I want to thank the staff members, all of whom were really welcoming and encouraging to my daughter, who has additional needs. The young man who gave the talk during the turtle and shark feeding then took a lot of time to answer her many (many) questions and did a fantastic job understanding what she was saying. Thank you so much, you really made her birthday.

    Sehr teuer! Wir wurden beim Kauf nicht darauf hingewiesen, dass man die Glasboden Fahrt extra buchen muss. Die Folge war wir mussten es vor Ort buchen und 1 Stunde warten. Personal sehr unfreundlich und nicht flexibel. Obwohl die Boote teilweise halb besetzt waren, durften wir nicht vorher mit. Am Ausgang gab es einen Automaten, wo man sich 4 verschiedene Souvenir Geldscheine kaufen konnte. Ich wollte alle 4. Also musste ich alle 4 einzeln kaufen. Nach dem dritten Schein lehnte der Automat meine Kreditkarte ab. Keiner konnte mir helfen! Ich habe den vierten mit meiner Bank Karte bezahlt. Kann man maximal 3 kaufen?
