History

Macduff Marine Aquarium opened in 1997.[1]

In 2017, the aquarium closed to allow the main tank to be drained and repaired.[2]

In 2023, Aberdeenshire Council announced that its bid for funding from the Levelling Up Fund had been successful. The aquarium is due to be expanded with a second storey added containing a cafe.[3][4]
