What's On [link to page]

Arguably the leading play facility in the area, our Soft Play area now includes brand new interactive features exclusive to the Dolphin Centre offering activity for children up to the age of 8.

Come and meet Pirate Pete and help the Mermaid Princess find Fin the Dolphin, who has been stolen by Slick and MC the mischievous sharks.  Along the way join in the challenge to see if you come across Pirate Pete's treasure.

Some of the key developments includes the improved toddler facilities for young children and babies and the larger spectator area that supports a comfortable environment and a happy social experience for both adult and children.  Sample our delicious menu [pdf document] available throughout the day.
