“Awesome day out with the kids”
Highly recommend this experience!! My girls - 7yrs & 8yrs loved it so much. We drove from London specially for this and spent the whole weekend in Skegness. Whist Snorkelling the baby sharks swam freely around the children- there were 7 of them-3 different types. The girls were excited to handle shark eggs too and the instructor was very nice and gave us lots of conservation information. The whole experience was fantastic and great value for money as we got to explore the Aquarium afterwards.
