Weymouth SEA LIFE Adventure Park opened in 1983 with six tank buildings aiming to present and educate visitors about local marine conservation.
Since then, the park has tripled in size and now houses over 1,000 marine creatures from penguins, seals, otters, sharks and crocodiles to the spectacular Ocean Tunnel showcasing endangered green sea turtles, with 2012 welcoming the addition of a 53-metre observation tower. Here, visitors can enjoy amazing 360º views of Weymouth Bay, Portland and the Jurassic Coast.
A ‘Breed, Rescue, Protect’ programme aims to increase awareness of, and support for, a wide range of marine conservation issues.
