点评:Second time visiting with two nature /sea life loving kids and I’m saddened to say we were a bit disappointed . We visited last year and had the most incredible interactive on tour, hence our second visit . Second time around we weren’t so lucky - the staff were super friendly and polite but the structure of the tour or lack really contrasted to our last visit .
I’d loosely call it a guided tour , more here’s some tanks & specimens ask if you have any questions . Children were looking forward to being really shown the dry specimens , being able to touch the star fish and hermit crabs like last time as well as learning interesting facts about the creatures in each tank but unfortunately this never really got going . I had to ask to be shown the anemones which glow under uv light, which was an highlight of our last trip , and if you didn’t know you wouldn’t have been shown it . Inevitability kids lost interest very quickly as weren’t kept engaged , which was a shame as there was some great sea creatures in the tanks .
I had been raving about this place to fellow mums / friends but now I’m reluctant to recommend as it seems maybe we just got lucky with our super interactive tour on the first visit .
Cafe as always is busy but very tasty food and drink , at reasonable price.
翻译:第二次带着两个热爱自然/海洋生物的孩子参观,我很遗憾地说我们有点失望。我们去年参观过,在游览中进行了最令人难以置信的互动,因此我们第二次参观。第二次我们就没那么幸运了——工作人员非常友好和礼貌,但游览的结构或缺乏与我们上次参观形成鲜明对比。
我大致称之为导游,这里还有一些水箱和标本,如果您有任何问题可以询问。孩子们期待着真正看到干燥的标本,能够像上次一样触摸星鱼和寄居蟹,以及了解每个水箱中生物的有趣事实,但不幸的是,这并没有真正开始。我不得不要求展示在紫外线下发光的海葵,这是我们上次旅行的亮点,如果你不知道,你就不会看到它。不可避免的是,孩子们很快就失去了兴趣,因为没有保持参与,这很遗憾,因为水箱里有一些很棒的海洋生物。
我曾向其他妈妈/朋友大肆吹捧这个地方,但现在我不太愿意推荐,因为看起来也许我们只是第一次来就很幸运地参加了超级互动之旅。
咖啡馆一如既往地繁忙,但食物和饮料非常美味,价格合理。
