The Blue Reef Aquarium is a showcase for a range of wildlife from the underwater world. There's the Blue Reef Nursery, a breeding ground for aquatic life from native sharks to cuttle fish and tree frogs. Kids will love the blaze of colour of the tropical coral reef or watching otters slide in and out of the water. Other species you may expect to find here are eels, shrimp, lobster, crabs, cuttlefish, sea horses, cane toads, the toxic poison frog and many more.
For all those interested in natural history, this museum celebrates the biodiversity of Portsmouth wildlife and the range of habitats in the area. The museum provides a microscopic view into the mudflats, marshes, seashores, woodland, grassland as well as the developed areas of the city which all attract a variety of species. You'll can also visit the Victorian Museum, the aquarium and butterfly house or find out more about Portsmouth's geology.
