About Sea Life London Aquarium + London Eye Ticket

SEA LIFE London Aquarium is one of Europe's largest collections of global marine life, housing over 500 species and more than 6,000 creatures across 14 immersive zones — making it the most comprehensive and most family-friendly aquarium experience available in central London. Located in the Victorian building of County Hall on the South Bank directly beside the Thames, the aquarium spreads across three floors of themed environments that take visitors on a complete journey through the world's marine ecosystems — from the shallow rockpools of the British coast to the open ocean, the tropical coral reef, the Amazon rainforest, and the icy polar seas.

The 14 zones cover the full breadth of marine life with remarkable variety. The Ocean Tunnel is one of the most breathtaking moments in the aquarium — a transparent walkthrough tunnel where sharks, rays, and sea turtles glide overhead and on either side in one of the most immersive underwater experiences available in London. Shark Reef presents some of the most powerful creatures in the ocean at close range. Penguin Point is the aquarium's most beloved zone for younger visitors — daily keeper talks and feeding sessions bring the penguins to life with expert commentary that engages children and adults alike. Ocean Invaders houses the UK's largest jellyfish experience — glowing, pulsing, and utterly mesmerising in the dark blue light of their tank. The new Coral Kingdom presents the UK's largest coral reef display with vivid tropical fish, anemones, and hard and soft coral species. Rainforest Adventure brings the Amazon ecosystem to life with freshwater species, tropical birds, and Amazonian insects.

The London Eye stands at 135 metres as the world's tallest cantilevered observation wheel — the gradual rotation in one of the 32 high-tech glass capsules takes approximately 30 minutes, offering spectacular views of London and its famous landmarks such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, and Trafalgar Square. The two attractions are just 3 to 5 minutes apart on foot along the South Bank — making this the most geographically convenient and most practically sensible attraction combo in central London. The London Eye visit can be used within 7 days of your SEA LIFE London Aquarium visit — giving complete flexibility to enjoy SEA LIFE one day and the London Eye on a different day if preferred.

Insiders' Tips

For the best ride on the London Eye, target a time slot between 11:30 AM and 12:30 PM from November to March, or between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM from April to October — the sun is at its highest around this time and is least likely to interfere with your view. Visit SEA LIFE first when children are at their most energetic and save the London Eye for the afternoon or early evening when the low light creates a magical atmosphere over the Thames. Check feeding times for the best aquarium experience — the penguin feeding sessions in particular are consistently described as the highlight of any family SEA LIFE visit.

When is the best time to ride the London Eye?
For the best views, target a time slot between 11:30 AM and 12:30 PM from November to March, or between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM from April to October — the sun is at its highest around this time and is least likely to interfere with your view. Sunset and early evening rides are also spectacular for photography of the illuminated London skyline.
