Scottish Sealife Sanctuary
Scottish Sealife Sanctuary Review
At the sanctuary kids and adults love the outstanding display of marine life, including shoals of herring, sharks, rays, catfish, otters, and seals. Many of the animals have been rescued, and this is where they receive rehabilitation before being released into the wild. There is also a beautiful aquarium, and kids will appreciate the adventure playground and gift shop. The restaurant serves morning coffee, plus a full lunch menu and afternoon tea. To get here, drive north from Oban for 10 mi on the A828; West Coast Motors also provide a regular bus service.
