Bristol Aquarium

This is our second time visiting the Bristol Aquarium, and I loved our visit. We book ours online and then go to the information desk and get the electric ticket exchanged for a scannable ticket we can use all day. I found the gentlemen serving us excellent and helpful in explaining how things worked. We approached the gate, and in no time at all, we were able to go through. I was amazed by how each tank was wonderfully designed to be pleasing for the fish and the viewer. I felt some tanks were a little overpopulated, but I'm not a fish expert, so perhaps they need to have a lot of fish in a smaller tank. We went around three times, and I could enjoy each tank for as long as I wanted; it was very pleasing, and I could enjoy the whole experience, and I look forward to my future visits. I couldn't attend any feeding sessions, but I don't think you need to see them to enjoy the visit. Everything was super clean, and I think the only improvement I would ask for is better opening times because it's an all-day ticket. It's summer it would be lovely to have it open a little later to allow the customers to walk in and out as they please.

We came on Saturday morning to the aquarium. It was quite noisy and my daughter was wearing her ear defenders. The lovely lady behind the ticket desk explained that there was a party that's why it was so loud and explained that inside the aquarium it would be quieter and pointed out where their quieter space was if we needed. This meant a lot to me as not everyone is so understanding and helpful.

Really enjoyed my visit to the aquarium. Really impressed with the amount of aquatic animals being looked after here. Some really beautiful animals. Very informative. Lots to see. Animals treated well. Staff friendly. Clean and tidy. At first was a little put off by the price of £19.50 but once I'd finished I was really glad I paid it and visited. Really loved the turtles! 🐠🐡🐢

I absolutely loved it; lots to see, brilliant textures and vibrant colours! Makes a brilliant day out for the family. Below are some photos I took with my SLR. Please don't use these photos for anything other than looking at. Thanks :)

Bristol Aquarium is a great place for the family. The kids loved it, and we really enjoyed it too. Some remarkable fish and turtles. Some huge, some tiny. Big tanks, and tanks with inserts that you can stick your head on, that we really enjoyed. I took pics of most of it, so take a peruse. There are a couple of places to park around if you're driving, but parking is quite pricey wherever you go. Entry is also about £19 each adult. Keep your ticket though as you can go on and out as much as you please throughout the day.
