Pollution in our Seas
SEA LIFE´s retail packaging has been reduced by over 30% in the last year and the use of PVC plastic by over 75%.
Microplastics and the dangerous chemicals they contain find their way onto our plates in the seafood we eat causing cancer and other serious health issues.
| Plastic breaks down into tiny bits which enter the food chain.

Last summer Hunstanton was proud to announce that it was the first UK town on the East Coast to take up the challenge and address the plastic bottle pollution problem with positive local action!
SEA LIFE Hunstanton is part of this scheme, so please drop into the coffee shop and the staff will be happy to refill your empty plastic water bottles with water.
Rain Forest Exhibit
The friendly Rainforest Rangers are ready to show you some of the jungle beasties, lizards and creepy crawlies at the daily handling sessions!
