Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium contains Antarctic Ice Adventure and Scott Base which includes a replica of Captain Robert Falcon Scott's hut, exhibits on what life was like for him and his crew as well as a penguin colony. These exhibits were built in 1994.
It is the first exhibit encountered by visitors. Visitors can view the aquarium's penguins through glass in their temperature controlled habitat. Visitors then pass through a recreation of the hut used by Captain Robert Falcon Scott during his South Pole expedition in 1912. The aquarium has a colony of king penguins and gentoo penguins.
