The Shipwreck & Octopus Lair
Our colder water exhibits are teeming with life and fascinating to explore!
Discover our themed shipwreck showing species from the deep waters. You’ll find crustaceans in the crevices and some incredible fish swimming about on the deck!
Don’t miss our Common Octopus, the largest of all UK octopus species. She’ll be lurking in her lair. Our common octopus lives alone because this is how they prefer to live, she would attack any other animals we added to the tank, they live a solitary live in the wild too.
