This is an excellent aquarium, with interesting species and a fabulous shark/ray tank. However, their awareness of disabilities and resolutions for them could be improved. There are 3 disabled parking bays, but these are not pre-bookable, and it's quite a walk from any other parking facility. They have no official facility in place for people unable to queue, but if you email them, they tell you that you can enter via the gift shop, for a faster experience. If this is your situation, I highly recommend emailing in advance because they will advice you on quietest times to come, will make sure you don't have to queue, and the team will be made aware that someone with additional needs is coming. It's not ideal to have to advocate for yourself, but the aquarium is worth the visit.
