We're thrilled to reveal our second limited-edition bottle with Plymouth Gin, inspired by seagrass meadows! 🌱

£1 from every bottle sold goes directly towards our seagrass conservation efforts, protecting the seagrass we already have and restoring the seagrass we have lost!

WE NEED YOUR HELP!
For the first year ever, we are taking part in the Big Give Green Match Fund campaign!

It's easy to get swept away by the amazing sharks, turtles, rays, and other large creatures at the National Marine Aquarium in #Plymouth , but the tiny animals are just as beautiful and fascinating!

We love the fact that a day ticket comes with an annual pass & try to make the most of it!

Anybody else absolutely loving the weather today? 😎☀️

We're open all weekend, so if you're around the Barbican why not pop in and say hello! Be sure to pre-book your ticket on our website to avoid disappointment!

Happy #FishfactFriday everyone!
Once again, we're not even covering a fish, but a reptile species! (Why did we call it Fish Fact Friday??)

We're sure you all recognise this chap, it's Friday the Green Sea Turtle!

Happy #FishFactFriday everyone!

We're ready to shell-ebrate Easter, so we thought we'd focus on yet another shelley species we have here at the NMA, the Common Hermit Crab!

We’re thrilled to announce that we are the first Aquarium in the UK to house the very rare and elusive fish species, invisibilia pisces! 👀

Looking for something to do in Plymouth this Easter half-term? Check out some of the Ocean activities we have lined up over the next two weeks!

For Easter, we surprised Larry with his very own billboard! 🦞
We think he likes it, but he’s being shell-fish and won’t talk to us now he’s a famous TV star 😕

If you’re local, let us know if you’ve spotted him!

Last week our Ocean Todds ventured outside to take part in the #GreatBritishSpringClean , helping us collect litter around our Aquarium! ♻️

🦀 On April 6th we'll be venturing out into the wild again for a Rockpool adventure at Wembury Beach: bit.ly/OCNtodds

Happy #FishFactFriday !
Todays species isn't actually a fish, but a crustacean (crustacean Fact Friday didn't sound so impressive).

This half-term, we're not only shell-ebrating Easter, but also our shelled animals! 🦞

Easter half term is fast approaching, and knowing Plymouth, its going to rain 😅🌧️

So if you're stuck for things to do this Easter, we've got you covered! Join us for fishy talks, crafts, shows and quizzes, whilst also meeting our Aquarium residents! 🦈
