Rhyl SeaQuarium has an open seafront location and sits on the beautiful North Wales coastline.
We would like to welcome all new explorers to join us on a voyage of discovery as we travel beneath the waves, from tranquil fresh waters to the cold depths of the abyss. Along the way we will encounter the strangely shaped sturgeon, as well as sharks found off our very own coast and rays that glide effortlessly through the water.
We will also find solitary lobsters, conger eels and mystical axolotls before entering the Lethal Reef, home to some of the most poisonous animals on our planet. These are just a few of the amazing, strange and beautiful animals that await us on our adventure. |

He's one of two Lion Fish at the Sequarium in Rhyl and is more than half an inch longer than the largest recorded specimen ever caught. Display's Manager Paul Tyson says measuring lionfish is difficult as they have poisonous spines along their backs. But in Spike's case it was worth the effort to discover that he is a world-beater.

The resident monster lobster at Seaquarium has done something amazing!
Larry has been in residence for 3 years and life has been fairly uneventful.
One night last week, staff said goodnight to Larry as usual, totally unaware of the fantastic event about to take place.
For during the night Larry, who is 10 years old, shed his skin! Lobsters moult as party of the growing process and with age, they grow more slowly in fact, with a lobster as old as Larry, moulting only takes place about every 10 years. Read More > |
