How to get hereJourney fact:
Britannia Pier in Great Yarmouth, UK, once featured an underwater aquarium attraction called "The Oceanarium" in the 1930s. Visitors could descend a staircase and view various marine life through glass windows, including sharks, rays, and other fish species. However, the Oceanarium was closed during World War II and never reopened.
