Wheelchair-accessible entrance
This was a great wee find for my family and I on a recent trip to Derry. There is no admission fee and the aquariums contain fish commonly found in rivers and streams locally. My children really enjoyed our trip and although the aquariums are all in quite a small room, it is full of information about the fish within each aquarium and also includes a video pod where you can learn more about native species of fish. There is a corner for small children to sit and colour in a variety of printouts of fish and a box of shells for them to look at and play with. We spent roughly half an hour in the main aquarium area before leaving to go to the outside river walk. There is a bird hide, insect hotel and a lovely but short walk along the river offering lovely views of the city. All in all it is definitely worth a visit and helps children appreciate their own local habitat more.

Well worth a stop. Very informative and lovely staff
Kids loved it ages 3 and 6. There is enough to keep them interested and excited. Lovely wee walk round the back too.
I love this place, very beneficial in terms of education. I have taken my grandchildren to it. I hope some day they take theirs too. At no cost this is a must for people who want to know what lives in our rivers.
Decide to drive 30 miles to visit as on their website apparently were open...we found the place closed. Maybe update status on-line
