The Deep Hull

Booked The Deep for my sons 7th Party as he loves the place.

Very impressed, we got there at 2pm for his party and had a 2hr guided tour with a tour that know how to get into the minds of 7yr old boys lots of talk about poo, and bottoms lol.

Even though it was busy, she made space at every tank for the party to be at the front. In one tank, about waist deep, the divers where in planting food and they came up and showed the food to the kids. She opened up the touchpools for the party only, and where there was a roped off area in front of a tank, she took them under the rope to the front of the tank.

They had a great meal, and lots of it.

After the party they got a party bag from The Deep, containing a notepad and pencil, and a set of sea creatures, they had also added the little bits I had taken.

It was so enjoyable that my daughter has asked to go there for her 6th birthday in October

    What a lovely time the kids must have had. They seem to have gone out of their way to make it so. Great stuff.

    We went a couple of years ago and our ticket meant we could go back free as many times as we liked in the following year. When we wanted to go 6 months later, couldnt find them. 6 months after that, found them, a week too late.

    I loved it.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    It's nice to hear of an attraction that isn't just about extracting money from people
