Lakeside, Newby Bridge, Cumbria

An award-winning aquarium with over 30 naturally-themed habitats enabling you to explore the natural history of the Lake District from the mountain tops to Morecombe Bay. Lots of interactive experience in each habitat (River, Lake, Seashore, Bay) and plenty of dedicated aquatic experts to ask as you look at the fish, mammals and crustaceans of the Lake District eg otters, diving ducks, gigantic carp, star fish etc. Speak u201CSteam to Streamu201D joint tickets available enabling children to arrive at the Aquarium via the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway (+ a goodie bag packed with gifts, treats and a quiz sheet), or to arrive by boat form Bowness or Ambleside. Very children orientated, Café at the Quay has a children's menu and there are baby-changing facilities. Open every day from 9am (except Christmas) until 5pm in the winter and 6pm in the summer.

We strongly recommend you ring Lakes Aquarium before you set off on your family day out, to make sure they are open and to confirm admission prices. It may also be worth visiting the website for Lakes Aquarium, www.aquariumofthelakes.co.uk, to see if there are any special events on the day for which you may have to book a ticket. Please also be aware that if Lakes Aquarium hosts birthday parties, this may limit the access in the cafe/restaurant areas.
