St Andrews Aquarium

About

The St Andrews Aquarium, perched on the cliff‑top Scores overlooking West Sands, offers a splash‑tastic adventure for families, schools, and marine‑enthusiasts alike. With more than 120 species on display, visitors can marvel at penguins, flamboyant meerkats, a dynamic shark and ray colony, marmosets, seals, and an array of tropical fishes. Daily feeding talks at 12:00, 15:00 and a 14:00 penguin session provide a behind‑the‑scales look at the animals' habits. In addition to interactive demonstrations, the aquarium hosts shark‑and‑ray talks, seal interactions and gift shop shopping right inside the entrance. Open seven days a week from 10:00 to 17:00 (last admission at 16:00), the family‑owned attraction delivers engaging, educational experiences without visitors ever getting wet.
