🦞📣***CALLING ALL SONS AND DAUGHTERS - LITTLE REMINDER - ITS FATHERS DAY ON SUNDAY!!! *** 📣🦞

Fancy getting dad something other than beer or a bar of chocolate? Then we may have a solution... You could adopt him his very own tiny lobster 🦞 ! I mean who doesn’t want to add a crustacean to the family?! Plus They’ll get their own lobster certificate and can see where their lobster has been released! The best part - you can think of a great name to call your dads new lobster child! 😅🦞

A pretty cool gift for an even cooler dad 😏

Day 5 (and our final day!) of things to see and do

Day 5 (and our final day!) of things to see and do at the NLH!

Probably one of the coolest things you can do during your visit is adopt your very own Baby lobsters 😍🦞

You’ll be able to name your lobster and then see when, where and how your baby was released when it’s old enough 😍 pretty cute! You can even see the stages your lobster will go through at the NLH until it’s ready for release (which is what’s happening in the photo!)

Thanks so much for joining us this week and we hope you now have a great reason to visit us! We hope to see you soon 😍🦞

Today it of course has to be our lovely lobster maternity ward!! Here, all our brave mums 'give birth' to THOUSANDS of baby lobsters! 🤰🦞🦞🦞🦞 From there, you can learn the journey our babies go on to how they are returned to the sea! Not only this, you can also learn about how our mums reached us and the brilliant fishermen that help make our hatchery work! 🙌

This year, we have ANOTHER very exciting reveal.. we have partnered up with @mcrmuseum to bring you.. THE HISTORY OF LOBSTERS! 👴🦞

Mhmm, you read that right - We have crustacean fossils that date back to around 500 MILLION years ago.. Totally worth seeing and learning all about the history of these incredible creatures; its not often you get to see a fossilised lobster 🤷

We don't want to give too much away - but we can confirm that it's pretty special!
