Entry for Youth Groups

SEA LIFE Manchester has a special focus on turtles, and its most famous resident is undoubtedly Ernie the giant green sea turtle who cruises the mighty ocean display. The spectacular introductory presentation takes visitors through the life cycle of a sea turtle…including seeing hatchlings emerge from their eggs and begin their hazardous journey to waiting waves. We advise that a visit to our SEA LIFE Centre lasts around 2 hours, however you can spend as much time as you like there!

Well over 30 other stunning displays house everything from cow-nosed rays to moray eels. Located inside the Trafford Centre’s Barton Square and next door to LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre, it’s a fantastic destination whatever the weather.

To book please call us on +44 (0)871 221 2483** (calls cost 13p per minute plus network extras).
