Ever wanted to sleep next to 3,500 fish? Uniformed groups including schools can join us for a night of fun and games amongst the fishes. Sleepovers are popular at The Deep and we have welcomed many cubs, brownies, guides and schools through our doors for the chance to sleep next to ones of Europe’s deepest tanks.
For a sleepover to operate we require a minimum of 100 and maximum of 150 children to participate, so this is a great opportunity for you to join forces with other groups in your district. The itinerary for your evening would follow as:
Arrival 7pm
Exclusive use of The Deep
Guided tour
Workshops throughout the evening including craft and games sessions tailored to your needs if required
‘Sleeping with the sharks’ (yes right in front of the tanks!)
Breakfast
Departure 8am next day
The cost of the above is £20 per child and we ask that you bring a pack-up for the evening, sleeping bags, mats and pillows etc. The price per adult is £5 and we require you to provide a ratio of 1:6 children. Your booking would only be accepted on the assumption that you will provide a sufficient number of suitably trained, qualified and insured adults to care overnight for the group (including those under the age of 8) in line with all relevant legal requirements, and that the children will be under your care and supervision throughout the evening. Necessary permission must be sought by yourselves from the children’s parents/guardians.
