Small but very well done. Demonstrates sea and marine life in nearby waters . It can easily be viewed within an hour but should not be missed. Very steep footpaths . Free but donations accepted

Such a gorgeous place to come with little ones, and such a cheap ticket! We spent an hour in the play area, then had a lovely walk down through the farm to the coast (with some fab bird spotting on the way - stone chats, meadow pippits and linnets), had a lovely lunch in the cafe, and then spent another hour or so in the playground. Really lovely staff, highly recommend.

This is a free visitor centre with interactive displays showing what marine wildlife is in the area. The children enjoyed playing with everything, watching videos and colouring pictures. It was very informative for the adults too.

The centre is small and is a bit stuffy if it's hot outside but the children spent a lot of time there. Apparently, there used to be live animals as well but those have since moved elsewhere.

If you are walking by then it is interesting to kill some time for 10-15 minutes and browse the gifts. Theres not really anything to do. The lady was very nice to chat to but it wouldn't be worth travelling to see this.

Great visitor centre, very informative and good for the kids - some fun things to do. If you go to New Quay pop in and take a look around - well worth 20-30mins of your day.

We went on a boat trip organised by the marine wildlife centre and picked up our tickets from here. A very small space but they have nice activities out for children and have lots of good quality gifts in the shop section, very reasonably priced, I’d even say cheap. I bought some wooden carvings and jewellery and only spent about £20 on 3 items. There was plenty more I would have liked to buy. They also have toys for the beach outside for children to help themselves and borrow.

Can book boat trips here, but slightly cheaper in town. Can learn a few things about dolphins here and a few things to buy as gifts.

Top attraction in New Quay, caring for the environment, making people aware of the marine world around New Quay and beyond.
