SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth

Visit SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth

Discover a whole underwater world at SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth.

If you’re camping in or near Great Yarmouth the SEA LIFE aquarium is a brilliant attraction for all ages. From jellyfish to crocodiles, there’s enough to explore to make a day of it.

Getting to SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth

This aquarium is in a central location on Great Yarmouth’s Marine Parade, making it easy to get to.

If travelling by car, you’ll need to park in one of the pay and display carparks along the sea front as this attraction doesn’t have dedicated parking. It’s around a 25-minute drive to the Marine Parade car parks from our Kessingland Club Site. If you’re travelling from our Norwich Club Site, it’ll take around 40 minutes by car.

If you’re on the Coastal Clipper Cabriolet 1C bus route, this stops right outside SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth. You’ll need to catch a connecting bus to join this route otherwise. Plan your public transport journey.
