The Deep Reviews

Exceptional!!! Much better than sea life centres and situated in a lovely place and close to hull city centre . Restaurant has lovely food and drinks. Conservation is brilliant

Lovely place, can just get a bit packed sometimes, but if you wait a little you can get in to see all the animals, lovely staff, great place to go with the family and spend a couple of hours walking around and looking at some amazing creatures

Excellent day out my daughter whos nearly 2 absolutely loved it

This place is good for teaching kids about global warming and the destruction of our oceans. Not a lot else really. There is far better aquariums around

We never get bored of this place. My son and I go often and continue to learn on every visit. The ticket where you pay once and can then get in for free for a year, is amazing value for money. The penguin addition is awesome, the difference between them I land and swimming is crazy, so graceful and fast in the water.

Went on a school visit. Excellent workshops for the children and everything you see is great and well laid out x

Excellent. The fact you get a year pass makes it even better value!

Not so much to see. A nice canteen and a children's shop

Brilliant great value for money as you can buy a yearly ticket for same price as day ticket friendly staff

Great day out for the whole family with lots of interesting ocean creatures and interactive displays with mind blowing ocean facts. Would definitely visit again.

Awsome lots of stuff to see and get a full years access the price of normal entry .

Fantastic day out great experience also the food was 10 out of 10 homemade pie and chips
Better than a food retailer
Will definitely come again

Great place to take kids and the family. I know we all enjoyed it when we went x

Love fish, love the deep. Its even got penguins and there are interactive displays for children. It has a tunnel to immerse yourself in the experience. Great place to take photos but no flash photography.

Interesting place
But some of the fish in with snapping turtles fins bitten to pieces

Great place to take kids also educational and a few places to eat nice view of the sea

Excellent attraction. Need at least a couple of hours to get the most out of it.

Just been. Poor poor organisation!

Don't go on busy days !!

Only 1 lift to get people back to level 3 which is cafe. Where you have to get further lift back down to exit. No one checking lift . 2 people who didn't want anyone with them. Staff should be ensuring lift had minimum number in.

Half way cafe - don't bother. Board said open 11 to 3. We went st 12.20 sign said cafe closed !

Really the idea is good. Not much there. Parking a joke. No staff about - it's as though they are avoiding visitors.

Very disappointed needs far more organisation for smooth and worthwhile experience.

It's put me off won't bother again

Fantastic place to visit and plenty of parking if you arrive early. I would recommend arriving later though as you can easily see everything in 3 hours and can avoid the crowds. We did this and had unspoilt views, quiet sections and the soft play area felt safe. We did feel the soft play was a disaster waiting to happen as parents could not sit close to children. Overall well worth the visit and the free 1 year pass.

Amazing place, loads to see & the kids learn without even knowing it

No photos or videos can ever do justice to this amazing venue

Great place. The sounds from the speakers combined with the visual effects create a unique atmosphere. I would recommend.

The deep was a good day out reasonably priced then when finished there its a short walk into hull centre

We went February half term, we had a great afternoon, we have been many times before the kids love it however on this occasion I was annoyed that one of the main tanks was empty, affecting one of the best viewing areas and the various other views of the tank. I feel as a family of 4 paying to visit the attraction you should be told at the till, I made a point of looking for a notice as we left, but couldn't see anything. I feel when one of the main attractions is closed a paying visitor should be told.

Excellent for kids and adults alike, we've been several times and enjoyed it everyone. It can be a little confusing to find the first time, but very worth the hassle. Food court and shop are reasonable and the kids will love it

This is a good place for a half day out. It's very much tailored toward children with it's activities, but is also interesting for adults. The main feature I enjoyed was the extremely large tank containing a wide variety of fish and rays. I would advise looking on the website beforehand and timing your visit to see the penguins being fed.

Never had a bad day since it opened 10 years ago....Great attraction and the home made pies in the cafe make s real treat at the start or end of your day!!

Great place for the family to go, lots to see and staff all freindly

It was a good day out. Not sure we'd make a special trip again.

Nice place, many species to see. A little bit too crowdy

Went on the dive experience, really has brought about anassion for diving. Loved every second.

An ideal place to take my grandchildren educational and interesting. One of the lifts was out of order long queues of children getting upset about the wait. A member of the staff was very helpful.

We took our children when they were young (5 & 3yrs) and it was a little bit too noisy for them. 7 years later we decided to go again... A great day was had by all. Lots of information to read and the fish tanks are filled with exotic fish. More

Was very disappointed thought it was aquarium but it was more like a museum

What's not to love, fish, sharks, penguins, sealife galore! One ticket purchase will give you a whole years access too!

Really cool place. Not as big as we thought so didn't take very long to go round. But what they had was very interesting and made for a nice couple of hours out

We had a lovely experience with the penguins getting feed made it all worth will going there

It would be nice for the kitchen to be open for a longer time

Not cheap for a family but tickets last for 12 months. Well worth a visit

The best aquarium we've ever been to. We spent so long looking at all the exhibits. It was very educational and aimed at all ages. Popped in the cafe for a drink and it was very pricey but it's to be expected in places like this.

Amazing place love going, just annoying having to queue every time even though we have an annual pass. Needs reviewing!

Make sure you book online! Penguin enclosure needs some upkeep. May have been time of day we went but they looked very lethargic.

Quote pricy for what it is. Nothing special about the place. The food in the cafe tasted horrible.

lts a great Submariam. with lots of exotic creatures and now the Penguins as well. Dont miss them.

Realy we'll set out with big tanks. Jelly fish were totally mesmerising. Very enjoyable day for all the family.
Only down point was food not good for GF choices.

Great day out for the kids. Little cafe inside does good food.
Will definitely be visiting again

Very interesting place to visit, I have a 2 and 3 year old and they both enjoyed it. I was a bit disappointed in the size of the tunnel, also we went on a week day and it was very busy with school trips of teenagers which made it difficult for my two small children to see a lot of the exhibits.

Excellent and very educational for our grandsons. We go quite alot as tickets are for the year and the grandsons are never bored.

Fabulous place! We went as a couple and it was still great for us to experience, as we were sceptical this might be more of a family place.
Great access for disabled visitors/wheelchair users throughout.
Interesting boards and viewing tanks/platforms throughout with the main aquarium in the centre hub of the building.
Great on site cafe and shop!
Ticket prices were reasonable and they're valid for 12months at a unlimited free revisits!
Parking was pay and display, but again, a few pounds so nothing out the ordinary.
We spent around 2-3 hours here with a bite to eat included!

Wonderful. Well worth a visit and your ticket lasts all year, so worth coming back to Hull for.

Excellent for the kids But only lasts for a couple of hours

Great place,my best friend adores the sea so i took her here when she visited. Girl couldn't stop smiling.

Informative and entertaining exhibits and experiences

Really good aquarium. We go often. Its very interesting and a fun day out for the kids!
