Have you ever wanted to feed one of the most majestic creatures in the ocean? Now you can.

Phoenix the giant green sea turtle was rescued from the Cayman Islands as part of SEA LIFE Blackpool’s popular ‘breed, rescue, protect’ programme. She’s now safely protected and cared for by trained aquarists, and enjoys a few treats from guests and visitors too!

Each turtle feeding experience takes place in SEA LIFE Blackpool’s impressive tropical ocean display. You’ll get to give Phoenix a 15 minute feed with a knowledgeable aquarist, who will help you enjoy your experience and tell you about the diet and habitat of green sea turtles.

As one of SEA LIFE Blackpool’s VIP experiences, it’s a great way to tick off one of those bucket-list moments, whatever your age.

Prices start from £75, and include entry into the aquarium. Guests must be 10 years old or over to be able to feed Phoenix.
