  • This is the place for children. Seal feeding. Lots of amazing tanks of seaside. Plus a child's heaven as regards a playground. Cafe, interesting history about fishing in the area and the move to gas, oil and wind production Cafe, toilets, plenty of parking. Entry €15 for adults. Plus it is dog friendly. Recommended
  • Very nice. My kiddo loved it. Perhaps some vegetarian foods at the restaurant could be a suggestion, other than fries.
