The Isle of Wight Reptilarium — Attraction in Freshwater

A small but really lovely reptilarium. The animals are clearly well looked after and most of the tanks are labelled. The downvote is because there's no staff. We had to buy our tickets from the gift shop and then go in, and given the small size there's no-one to ensure that masks are being worn and social distancing regulations are being followed. This may have been due to the small number of customers when we visited and I don't know if they have staff in place when it's busier but I can only comment on what I saw.

The price of entry is reasonable for today's entry prices at most attractions, remembering that much of the entry price goes to the upkeep of the animal held there. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Fright week is a great little halloween twist on the place, I guess for half term kids and grown up kids alike. It just puts a little fun into the visit, it looks like they went to a lot of effort on it. I would recommend a visit to anyone, don't expect 'Alton towers ' but for 5 quid entry per adult (less for kids) it...

Had an absolutely fantastic time here absolutely loads for the kids to do from digging in sand to find fossils to looking at lizards and snakes and Turtles, they have stools around so the little kids can see all the animals in their tanks without parents have to pick them up and carry them they have small exhibits of random things as well just to take your interests for example monkey claws and shrunken heads they give you a stamp so once you leave you may re-enter again which this is one of the few places you can have a look around leave go to a cafe have a coffee and still want to go back an hour or two's time...
