Interesting visit enjoyed by all, other than eating in the onsite Cafe. Food was extremely disappointing as was the wait. Recommend you eat elsewhere or bring your own picnic.

We love going to exploris. But this time I have been very underwhelmed. There were very few animals to see, lots of places empty, the beautiful pirate decor nearly all gone… for 30 pounds and a 15 minutes visit. I don’t know what happened, it used to be really lovely. I hope things will improve so we can come back more often

Had a fantastic day! Hadn’t been in many years and the aquarium has had a great revamp since then!
Clean facilities throughout and animals all showing content, natural behaviours. I will be back

Love Exploris Aquarium - have been the to aquarium a few times as a child and it was always an enjoyable experience, been back twice as an adult and it's just as enjoyable, if not more as I now am able to take in the information. Clean place, great food in the Kraken, and easy to navigate around the aquarium as there are signposts the entire way round.

Some time ago me and my daughter went here. Place was nice but an enclosure was full of goats and other land animals INSTEAD of marine animals like promised! Place was good the rest of the time though. No clue why kid’s play area is age restricted for “3-8” years the “older kids” area and “6 months- 2 years” for younger! I get the 6 mths - 2 yrs restriction but my daughter is over the max big area age and she can still fit in there! Unbelievable! Also zoos are hurting animals so we’ll boycott this place. Everyone should! Two stars. Would be five if that big area issue was resolved and animals were no longer being forced to interact with tourists and visitors.

Visited with large family of 7 adults and 6 children from 1-6 years old.
We had an amazing time, the kids loved everything. Staff were very helpful, informative and kind to the children.
We ate in the cafe afterwards and it was lovely. Definitely a place we would visit again.

Really disappointing. This was our 1st time back in 8 years and taking our little 5 month old boy. I knew they had put money into it so had expected better things but it was worse than ever before. What seems like way less animals and a lot of empty or sparse tanks. Some places in disrepair and dirty just lacking in a lot of aspects. As for the cafe, oh my goodness can hands down say worse panini of my life!!! £8.95 for 2 thin slices of chicken and the (tikka) colour can only be described as something that comes out of my babies back end. The bread was stale it was just awful. Not to mention this was my second choice as the first choice I wanted to was (not available). Honestly such a let down!!

Animals were playing hide and seek and they won and so was the food as we got about 10 chips for a portion of chunky chips which were then undercooked 😬

Had a lovely morning spent at Exploris. However this was spoilt by the quality of some of the restaurant food.The kids burger meals had blood visible on the burger bun and was served cold.

Great experience for kids and parents.Brilliant Exposure to marine animals especially seals and penguins .Kids will enjoy the display initially and the best part ;they would love the soft play area for sure .Tickets bit costly .

We went today. A wet Saturday with a 4YO and 1YO. Whilst they seemed suitably impressed I was underwhelmed. Half of the exhibition is outside which is not ideal in the rain - most of these outside exhibitions were empty. The internal exhibition could be viewed in 15 minutes.m so not really worth the £36 for 2 adults and 1 child (the infant being free). It all smacked of run down seaside town attraction. I have grown up in Co. Down and wouldn’t return.
