SEA LIFE Blackpool is a well-worth visiting aquarium located right on the promenade in the centre of town. It's easy to find and has plenty of paid parking nearby. The aquarium is family-friendly and suitable for people with disabilities, as most exhibits and the entrance are accessible. A personal assistant ticket can be requested for free when purchasing an adult admission. The aquarium is not huge, but it offers a great variety of sea creatures, including some unusual ones like the Axolotl. Visitors can enjoy scheduled talks by knowledgeable staff, such as the shark talk led by "Charlie." The centre is kept exceptionally clean, and the animals appear to be well cared for. The staff are described as friendly, approachable, and helpful. One reviewer particularly enjoyed the shark snorkelling experience, praising the instructor Kyle for his kindness, reassurance, and detailed explanations. Another reviewer mentioned a friendly gift shop employee named Tilly. Pre-booking tickets is recommended, especially if visiting during school term or holidays, as the aquarium can get busy. However, the staff are accommodating and may offer alternative times to visit.
