A really wonderful attraction. Maryport is a fantastic place to visit! Firstly it s beautiful.

Clip and climb is brilliant.

The maritime museum is interesting.

The Roman fort and museum is excellent.

But the Aquarium is the jewel in the crown. I ve been going for years, I love it as do the family.

The exhibits are fascinating, you can just float around and observe or you can full on learn! The talks are interesting and entertaining. The fish are well looked after, healthy and seem happy.

The Ray pool is amazing.

It s a great place to eat or have a snack with amazing views over the harbour and solway to the Hills of Galloway and Criffle.

The staff are very friendly, and welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble.

I actually go there to buy fishing tackle. I love aquatic life and rate this as the best aquarium I ve been to.
