Consider taking a Behind the Scenes tour - they take 30 minutes and guests will be taken into the working areas of the aquarium with an expert guide and shown how the aquarium staff care for both the saltwater and freshwater species under their care.

SEA LIFE London is extremely popular with local families during school holidays, so visit during the week or earlier in the morning to avoid the crowds.

There isn’t a café or restaurant inside the aquarium itself, but the attraction is located on the South Bank of the River Thames, a bustling walkway with plenty of food options to appeal to all tastes and budgets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What will we see on a trip to SEA LIFE London?

SEA LIFE London is home to over 7,000 animals, including Green Sea Turtles, Gentoo Penguins, plus different species of sharks, rays, jellyfish, and other fish (both saltwater and freshwater). With themed large tanks including an Ocean Tunnel, a shipwreck scene, fish from the River Thames, and Nemo’s coral reef, there’s a lot to discover.

Can we feed the fish?

Guests are asked not to feed the fish! Their diet is carefully monitored by the staff to make sure all the species in the aquarium are healthy and happy. There are feedings daily which visitors can watch, these vary so you should check with the ticket desk or a member of staff on arrival to see what’s on that day. You can get up close and personal with various creatures in the rockpool exhibit. More intrepid visitors can book a Snorkel with Sharks experience, where they’ll be able to snorkel with Sand Tiger Sharks, Black Tip Reef Sharks, and Nurse Sharks! Read more.
