Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre
Staffed by volunteers, our visitor centre is free to enter and is open seven days a week between April and November. It was refurbished in 2008 with grant aid from the Countryside Council for Wales and Awards for All Wales (Big Lottery Fund). The facilities include interpretative and interactive displays showcasing the huge variety of marine wildlife found in Cardigan Bay, including an aquarium full of rock pool species. There’s also a gift shop area so that you can take home a souvenir of your time here.
The exhibits provide information on different themes such as the dolphins, seals and birds which can be spotted locally, the geology of the area and important issues surrounding pollution and sustainable fishing. There’s also information on how people can help protect the area and a sightings board which is updated daily with the latest local sightings, weather and tide information.
At the visitor centre you can also purchase tickets for a Dolphin Survey Boat Trip.
Current opening times:
We will reopen at 9am on Monday 2nd April. Opening times will be 9am until 5pm, seven days a week. During the summer holidays we will be open until 6pm.
