Experience a sleepover at our aquarium!
A sleepover adventure you'll never forget
When all the daytime staff have gone home for the night, and most of the lights are switched off, you can come and see what the creatures get up to when they think no one is watching!
With the Sleepover Experience, you'll have the opportunity to sleep inside our Ocean Tunnel with sharks, turtles and rays swimming above you. You can also participate in a range of great aquarium activities without the daytime crowds.
Our knowledgeable staff will give you a fully guided VIP tour of the aquarium, including craft activities to complete in the evening.
Breakfast is included within the Sleepover experience.
The Sleepover includes:
- An overnight stay at SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth
- Breakfast
- Exclusive VIP tour of the aquarium
- Evening craft activities
- VR experience
Sleeping Arrangements
Sleeping under and around our tropical Ocean Display is definitely one of the highlights!
Watch our animals get active at night as the blue coloured night lights come on. Or see if you can spot our Green Sea Turtle Noah resting above you.
Did you know that some species of shark and fish never stop swimming?! They don't sleep like we do so chances are you will see their shadowy figures moving around all night long.

Your experience will begin after the aquarium has closed to the general public. Exact start time will be confirmed when booking with us. Over the course of the evening you will then experience and do the following:
