Oceanarium Scoops Top Award

The Oceanarium is celebrating after being announced as the 2008 Tourism Attraction Experience of the Year at last night’s (November 27) prestigious Bournemouth Tourism Awards.

Triumphing over strong competition from three other nominees, the Oceanarium’s success affirms its position as Bournemouth’s leading visitor attraction.

Since 2007 more than £250,000 has been invested in the Oceanarium’s facilities and with the launch of two revolutionary new displays – the world’s first Interactive Dive Cage in 2007 and Global Meltdown in 2008, we have further enhanced the visitor experience and reinforced the Oceanarium’s reputation for innovation.

James Eels, Oceanarium Director, said: “We welcome in excess of 225,000 visitors each year to the Oceanarium. Looking after each and every one of those visitors is a team effort. Winning the accolade of Tourism Attraction Experience of the Year is a reflection of the hard work of everyone at the Oceanarium. We are all immensely proud to have won this prestigious award.”
