useful thanks!

Personally I think the best discount voucher would be not going to Deep as it overpriced and very disappointing (when compared to the Sealife Centre at Scarborough Or The London Aquarium for instance).

However There is a printable 1 Free child with 2 paying adults voucher here:

We got a discount voucher of 1 kid free per adult at the accommodation. Thats the best offer i think, but as we didnt know it was available until we got there, we booked on the Deep website where we got a discount for pre-booking tickets and that also allows you to queue jump. there was a long queue on the day we went but we went straight in.
I wouldn't go back....but if your in the area.....then its worth a look. Go up to the top floor of the cafe and onto an outside observation deck. We didnt know it was there until we couldnt find a seat on the main floor. Nice views....

Well we made it to The Deep on Monday and we loved it! There was myself & my husband and my dad and we all really enjoyed it.

There were a few families there and a couple of school trips but I have to say the adults seemed to be enjoying it all much more than the kids. The schools seemed to wizz through quickly playing with the learning games (have to admit most of these didn't seem to be working right, so if you enjoy doing these you could be disappointed) and then they were gone so they didn't hold us up or anything. The staff were all very friendly, when a few people were in an area they would put on head sets and give us all info over the PA system. We was lucky enough to be there for the shark feeding (which was fantastic!) and a member of staff advised us to move to another area so we would get a better view which I thought was very good of them. I think we spent around 3 hours there and the majority of that time was looking in the aquariums, I'm not one to stand and read about things or press buttons to see what happens, I just wanted to see the fish. The cafe has a lovely view of The Humber Bridge but I'd only recommend it for a drink and a scone or something like that, everything looked lovely but it wasn't the best quality food but the staff were again lovely, very friendly and helpful.

It cost us £9.50 each for myself and my husband & £8.00 for my dad (OAP), we filled a form in and we can return as many times as we want in the next 12 months for free (yay I like free! lol) or for a voluntary £4 pp donation which I wouldn't mind paying as I think it is well worth it and it is a charity as well. It cost £3 for the car park but you get a voucher for '£2 squid' which you can use in either the cafe or the gift shop so really it's just £1 to park.

I know I've been rattling on a bit but I've read quite a few bad reviews of The Deep in my quest for discount vouchers (which they don't do apart from the booking on line one) so I just wanted to put in a good word for it really. I'd give it 8½ out of 10!

Hope this helps someone have a lovely day out
