Clacton Pier Dolphinarium (Closed) Clacton Seaquarium/old dolphinarium?

[sealion]

Hey all, just some general questions really...

Just been looking at some of the pics of the current Seaquarium on Clacton Pier. (Which I had previously thought was one of the Sealife branch!)
Correct me if i'm wrong but, it doesn't look a very exciting aquarium- how big is it? It it basically in the warehouse from the old dolphinarium? And why exactly did they get rid of the Sea lion show? I would have thought that it would have been a great seaside crowd-drawer!

Does anyone know what is happening with the old dolphinarium/sea lion pools?

Thanks.

I actually live near Clacton. I don't really visit that often to the Aquarium but can tell you its not very big at all! To my knowledge the old sealion pool is behind the current aquarium building.

Ok thanks, it looked as though they could have done a bit more with the general space. I wonder whether they own the pools at the back or not.....
