Sea Life Loch Lomond
9 minute walk from Balloch station · Glasgow and West Central

Sea Life Loch Lomond is an aquarium centre that is home to over 1,500 creatures housed within seven themed zones, ranging from local shores to the depths of the world’s oceans.
The aquarium features a diverse array of life, including sharks, rays, and turtles. A notable resident is April, a rescued Olive Ridley sea turtle. Visitors can also see Asian Short Clawed otters, the smallest species of otter, including a cheeky resident named Cub.
You can journey through a Tropical Ocean Tunnel to come face-to-fin with blacktip sharks or visit the interactive rockpool. The centre also offers talks, feeding times, and boat cruise tours on the loch. Special seasonal events include the spooky Ascarium and Christmas experiences.
