SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth Reviews Parent blogger Counting To Ten said: "There is a new Rock Pool Explorer Experience where after washing your hands you can touch or hold a couple of creatures.

On our visit there were sea anemones and starfish in the rock pools here and my children learnt lots from this hands on exhibit. " "Lovely aquarium. Lots to see all the way round.

We got to hold a stick insect and touch a star fish. We collect pressed pennies and were able to get one here. You couldn't fill a whole day here but it was a really good experience.
