One of our popular interactive experiences is holding a #starfish. These curious, five armed creatures don’t have a brain, or even blood and are most famous for their ability to regrow arms if they lose one. Hold one for yourself when we reopen for February half term. #lymeregis

We're open now until the end of October. Come and meet Curtis, our Cuckoo Wrasse, who stands out with his stunning electric blue and orange colouring. He looks like he belongs in the tropics, but you may be surprised to know #CuckooWrasse are found in our local waters. #lymeregis
