Maryport Aquarium is a great place to discover the amazing underwater world of Cumbria’s seas and coasts. You can see over 2,000 specimens of native aquatic life in over 75 creative displays, and enjoy the views of the harbour and the Solway from the cafe. The aquarium also offers a nautical-themed playpark, a 14-hole mini golf course, and a gift shop. The aquarium is open 7 days a week, all year round (excluding Christmas Day and Boxing Day) from 10 am to 5 pm. The admission prices are £11 for adults, £7 for children, £10 for seniors, and free for under 3s. You can also buy a 12-month membership for £21. If you are looking for a fun and educational day out in the Lake District, Maryport Aquarium is a good choice.

Senhouse Roman Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

If you're looking for a place to immerse yourself in the history and culture of Roman Britain, you might want to visit the Senhouse Roman Museum in Maryport. This small but impressive museum displays an amazing collection of Roman artefacts, including altars, inscriptions, sculptures and coins, that were found at the nearby fort and settlement. You can learn about the lives and beliefs of the soldiers and civilians who lived here 2000 years ago, and admire the stunning views of the Solway Firth from the museum's watchtower. The museum is housed in a Victorian naval battery, which adds to its charm and uniqueness. The museum is open from Friday to Sunday, 10.30am to 4pm, and admission is £5 for adults and £3 for children. You can also enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a snack in the museum shop, or bring your own picnic to eat outside. The Senhouse Roman Museum is a hidden gem that will delight anyone interested in Roman history and archaeology .
