SEA LIFE London Aquarium

Overview

Dive in and explore an underwater world of glittering scales, waddling feet and razor-sharp teeth. Brave the depths of the Pacific before trekking through the Amazon Rainforest. Glide alongside Sea turtles before waddling with Gentoo penguins, where you’ll discover the Polar Adventure.

Polar Adventure
Feel the chill with our Gentoo Penguins!
The Gentoo penguin (Pygoscelis papua) is the third largest species of penguin, with only the Emperor and King penguins being larger. They are the fastest species of penguin, capable of reaching speeds of 22mph underwater.
Penguins are playful! They love to slide down icy patches on their bellies and take turns to dive into the ocean. Did you know their black and white pattern is a form of camouflage? It helps them blend in with the water and keep safe from predators.

Ocean Invaders
Ocean Invaders welcomes you to enter the world of Jellyfish at SEA LIFE London. Stepping into the UK's largest jellyfish experience, Ocean Invaders will take you on a journey into the fascinating world of jellyfish through three unique interactive zones.

Shark Walk
Start your visit with an unnerving walk over a glass window with incredible views into the magnificent Pacific display, where some of the most majestic creatures in the ocean swim just inches beneath your feet!

Coral Kingdom
A spectacle of colour has arrived here at SEA LIFE London with the UK’s largest living coral reef being unveiled in our new Coral Kingdom.
From the moment you step into the dazzling underwater oasis, you will journey through the leafy green shallows of the Mangroves as the Coral Kingdom transitions between day and night. Prepare to see regal tangs, cardinal fish, clownfish and many more swim through our 40ft long tank.
Discover what it’s like for our creatures on the reef with our clown fish challenge as you weave, dive and shuffle your way through the reef just like our clownfish residents here.
