The Aquarium in Hull opened in March 2002 and was one of the reasons we chose Hull for our Christmas break. We visited every day it was was open and enjoyed the thousands of sea creatures (including seven species of shark), amphibia from the Amazon and Penguins, many of whom have lived there since it opened. The Deep is also a landmark centre for marine research. A team of aquarists look after the animals in The Deep's collection as well as carrying out research into the marine environment.
