I went to Bristol aquarium on the 28th of may 2021 and went through the aquarium twice, had a pepperoni pizza, did the virtual reality 'shark dive'. I found that the aquariums and the themed areas that they were in a little silly and childish but might be appealing to certain people, eg. the large seabass and shark display had a sunken shipwreck theme. however I did enjoy the large open areas with vegetation surrounding the large freshwater aquarium. the viewing for all of the aquariums as impeccable and the fish were stunning. at around 12-12:30 we got to watch the large saltwater tank be fed and the gentleman doing so was king and helped to answer any questions and watching the sharks leaping for their food was amazing. a quick note is that on the small indoor amazon tank they had bronze corydoras which were labelled with a picture of bronze corydoras and had the name and description and a different fish. the food and gift shop were a bit expensive and a whole 12 inch (30cm) pepperoni pizza has 12 small slices of pepperoni. I found that the shark dive experience was incredible a in way that I cannot describe and was well worth the £5 that it cost, I will update this review after I do the 'swim with beluga whales' experience. during lunch there was an emergency evacuation of the building due to a burst water pipe and the staff was clear calm and efficient in their handling of the situation.
