North Cornwall is one of the most spectacular and popular tourist destinations in the United Kingdom, with Newquay seeing the bulk of the action. From budding surfers to landscape-loving ramblers, this unique stretch of coastline draws in visitors of all different kinds. One thing most visitors have in common, though, is a love of the sea.

A Diverse and Fascinating Collection

The Aquarium is home to more than 40 different habitats, each populated by a variety of wildlife. Habitats range from local Cornish scenes to exciting and exotic areas.

With scheduled feedings and underwater tunnels, all the animals can be seen up close without visitors getting wet!

An Ideal Setting

Situated right in the centre of the county's busiest town, visiting the Blue Reef Aquarium couldn't be easier. But the setting isn't only convenient, it's also fitting. The Aquarium is located on Towan Beach, right next to the ocean and the beach's famous island. The attraction is therefore within easy reach of a wide collection of hotels, as well as all the town's shops, bars and restaurants.
