Blackpool Sealife

Blackpool Sealife is home to one of the largest collections of tropical sharks in Europe. Housing more than fifty spectacular displays and over 1,000 assorted sea creatures it takes visitors on a journey from the coastline and sandy shallows to the ocean depths. A highlight for every visitor at SEA Life Blackpool is undoubtedly the mighty ocean tank, teeming with tropical sharks and colourful reef fish. From the amazing vantage of a walkthrough underwater tunnel it is easy to imagine it is you…rather than the fish…that is on display!

Walk through the amazing underwater acrylic tunnel and see the incredible sharks glide silently above and around you. Step through the sunken galleon and discover Pirates, The Legend of Blackbeard. Be surrounded by the beautiful Caribbean Reef and discover the creatures that have made their home in the ghostly wreck. “Stunned aquarium staff have discovered that a shark they did not know they had has been living undetected in their ocean tank for years.Staff at Blackpool Sea Life Centre were baffled when two shark eggs were discovered in a tank occupied by sharks which give birth only to live young.The centre's marine experts speculate that one of several former curators must have introduced a small tropical carpet shark to the display without recording the fact, and it has been in hiding ever since.” Dailymail.co.uk Tuesday, Nov 22 2011.
