National Sea Life Centre Reviews

This particular sealife centre is based in Birmingham, and isn't too far a walk from the train stations.

These include various fish , small sharks, sea ...  Read the complete review

I went on a visit to Birmingham Sealife Centre last week for my birthday with some friends. I love fish and aquariums so was really looking forward to going. I'd previously been to the centres in Great Yarmouth and Scarborough but not for a number of years. Firstly, the prices shown about on here are very out of date.

I have tried to contact the centre by phone to query this ...  Read the complete review

The display interestingly shows the differences in habitat between different places in the estury. There is an iteresting display on ...  Read the complete review

The Sealife Centre is a fairly new addition to Birmingham’s attractions. Situated in the regenerated Brindley Place, it nestles behind Birmingham’s ICC. Be prepared to queue – we arrived at the centre’s opening time 10:00am Bank Holiday Monday and the queue was already half an hour long. I was a bit worried as ...  Read the complete review
