Blue Reef Aquarium Hastings offers visitors a dazzling undersea safari through the oceans of the world.

From the hidden world of UK waters, Blue Reef transports visitors to the spectacular 'underwater gardens' of the Mediterranean and the stunning beauty of tropical waters - home to everything from seahorses and puffer fish to living corals and native sharks.

The centrepiece of the aquarium is the spectacular coral reef housed within a gigantic ocean display with its underwater walk-through tunnel.

Enjoy the closest of undersea encounters in a 15-metre long underwater walk-through tunnel through the reef, from inside a glass cavern and via the large ocean window.

More than 30 other naturally-themed displays reveal the sheer variety of life in the deep from crabs and rays to the amazing octopus and turtles.

Blue Reef is a great place for visitors of all ages to find out more about the wonders of the deep. There's a full programme of entertaining and informative talks and feeding displays throughout the day.

Blue Reef also has a busy calendar of events to keep the whole family entertained. You can follow a treasure trail during Pirates' Weekend, learn more about protecting seahorses, sign up to save sharks, take part in a beach clean or create a piece of fishy-themed artwork.

We have a Blue Reef Aquarium Cafe with a selection of drinks, snacks and ice creams.

A range of souvenirs including soft toys, stationary and toys. Starting from only 50p.

Disabled toilet and baby changing facilities available.

We have bottle warming facilities.

You can find Blue Reef Aquarium off the A259 in Hastings Old Town with the fishing huts positioned at the end of the road. A large pay and display car park is directly next to us so make sure you bring some change. We are accessible by bus and Hastings train station is a 20 minute walk away.

Buggy friendly except for a few small steps into the tunnel.
