Good morning, The experience at Sea Life London Aquarium was fantastic! We entered around 10:00 am and stayed there about 2 hours and 30 minutes among the tanks filled with spectacular specimens of sharks, fish of all kinds. The most beautiful part, in our opinion, were the penguins, which as most of the time, is the favorite "attraction" for both older and younger visitors! Highly recommended experience

Memorable all around experience. But would have been great if the lighting inside some tanks were bit brighter and the tank glasses were more clean as some tanks had dirt spots blocking the view from small kids. Also, if any chance you could include a dolphin section would be much appreciated as well. Thank you team Thank you team.

The sea life aquarium was amazing. It was so fun to watch all the aquatic life forms. The huge viewing tunnel was the highlight of the aquarium where the fishes literally swim all around you. The penguin exhibit was also fun. I would definitely recommend the sea life aquarium to anyone who is visiting London.

I had an amazing time at SEA LIFE London Aquarium, and it absolutely deserves five stars. From the moment I stepped inside, the atmosphere was immersive, with dim lighting and beautifully designed tanks that made you feel underwater. The highlight was walking through the glass ocean tunnel while sharks, rays, and colourful fish glided overhead—truly unforgettable. The exhibits are thoughtfully organised, making it easy to explore everything from coral reefs to penguins and jellyfish. Staff members were friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to answer questions, which added to the experience. It’s also very family-friendly, with interactive displays that keep children engaged while still fascinating for adults. The conservation messages throughout the aquarium were inspiring and educational without feeling overwhelming. Everything was clean, well maintained, and professionally presented. Whether you’re visiting London for the first time or looking for a fun day out, this attraction is absolutely worth it. I would happily visit again.

It was a very fun experience! The kids loved it and we couldn't get them away from the huge turtle and sharks display that was in the middle of the exhibit. You could see it from every angle and the lighting and music added to the experience in a very fun and artistic way! Very much recommended!

The aquarium worth visit. It is bit old infrastructure and glasses are not well polished as it should be, but the species collection, the way it designed, from fresh water to salt water, from rain forest to ice, it captured our engagement. We visit as family with 4years kid.

Access was easy. However the atmosphere was claustrophobic. A number of points were closed. We exited and then asked to come back to just use the toilet for my 6 yr old and were refused. Generally an ungenerous feeling.
