National Marine Aquarium Plymouth - a must
Followed by Fish and Chips purchased and then not eaten until you make your way to Hoe (the bit between the sea and the town with the Lighthouse on it) - only a 5 minute walk from the Acquarium. If you walk to the end of the hoe away from the NM Acquarium you reach the start of the estuary near the Naval base where quite often you can see large warships, submarines and aircraft carriers coming out ... Even better ...
Visit the UK's largest aquarium and be amazed by our fascinating underwater world. We have over 70 sharks from more than ten different species. The sharks on display range in size from the small dogfish to the large Sand Tiger Sharks.
the Plymouth Gin Distillery
A good way to spend an hour and a half and is only a 3 minute walk from the Acqarium - it is surprisingly interesting for all ages and not too long. The benefit is that you get a free G&T thrown in at the end!
