NL Van bron
Sea Life Scheveningen is een groot openbaar aquarium in Scheveningen (Den Haag), geopend in 1993. Sea Life Scheveningen is onderdeel van de internationale keten Sea Life, de grootste aquarium-uitbater in de wereld met verdere vestigingen in België, Denemarken, Duitsland, Engeland, Frankrijk, Ierland, Italië en Spanje. Er zijn ook vestigingen in de Verenigde Staten, Azië en Oceanië. Sea Life is een onderdeel van de Merlin Entertainments Group.

Het gebouw is gelegen aan de boulevard aan het strand waar vroeger het golfslagbad was. Er zijn vaak tentoonstellingen over bepaalde onderwerpen zoals tropische vissen, kreeften, krabben, kwallen en zeesterren. Te zien zijn vele soorten vissen zoals haaien en roggen, maar ook zeeschildpadden en otters. Op bepaalde tijden worden de vissen gevoerd. Er is ook een grote glazen tunnel door een aquarium, waarin men zich echt tussen de vissen waant. Dit is tevens het oudste tunnel-aquarium van Nederland. In 2011 is het gebouw gerenoveerd.
