SEA LIFE London Aquarium(水族馆)
Home to one of Europe's largest collections of global oceanic life, SEA LIFE London Aquarium will take visitors on an interactive journey along the Great Oceanic Conveyor.
The mysterious experience, spread over three floors, starts by taking an underwater style lift to the depths of the Atlantic Ocean. Along the journey, an amazing glass walkway offers guests an unforgettable experience by walking underneath a Tropical Ocean. There is plenty of interaction along the way, from feeding the Stingrays and watching diving displays to touch pools and discovery zones. Other stars of the show include Green Turtles, Seahorses, Zebra Sharks and the ever popular Clown Fish. The true highlight, however, begins as guests complete their journey in the deeper darker zone of the Pacific Ocean—take a walk on the wild side and watch 10 species of Shark swim beneath your feet from a suspended glass platform.
Schedule
Open Daily: Mon-Fri & Sunday: 10 am to 5 pm (last entry); Sat: 9:30 am-6 pm (last entry)
To note
The Attraction will close 1 hour after last entry.
