Reviews

  1. Kenneth Keen ★★★★☆

    Extensive site with lots of places to picnic but on the day we arrived the buildings were closed. I've been before and it takes a full day to take in all the various exhibits. Really important are the three wheeled human powered tricycles made in 1880 which were deliberately destroyed by what became the automobile industry. The competition was a danger to big industry but several images and even original tricycles can be viewed by those broadminded enough to comprehend their significance to the environment and economies world wide.

  2. C MCV ★★★★☆

    It was a good experience and some very interesting sites. The aquarium is quite small so does not take that long to go round. There is a soft play area for the smaller children and a lovely restaurant that is reasonably priced.

    What an absolutely amazing visit to aquarium. Took our 3 month old granddaughter and here face was an absolute picture she loved the under water tunnel . Great range of all aquatic animals and seeing the baby seals was so cute. A great couple of hours was had very well recommended

    It is about an hour drive from Belfast but it was worth it. There's a variety of ocean fish and sea creatures including seals, otters, penguins and reptiles. Unfortunately the main shark tank was being renovated and unavailable at the time but we knew that ahead. Nevertheless we've enjoyed ourselves and had a great time. The food in the restaurant was good as well.

    We had a great family day out at Exploris Aquarium, I hadn't been in years and was really impressed with the upgrades that had been made! It used to be much smaller, you could have made your way around everything in less than half an hour. But they have added so much, including an outdoor section with picnic tables which allowed us to sit down to feed our baby without getting in the way. We'll definitely be back!

    Really great afternoon enjoyed at Exploris. This place is so improved and I recommend all to visit, there is so much to see. I even rate the food in the cafe highly. At the end of our visit we both had a really delicious late lunch.

    A small aquarium packed with fun. Pleasantly surprised to see other types of animals not from the sea. There is a soft play area for kids too. Restaurant serves decent food with a nice view. Great place to bring your kids to have a day out.
