WOW! We have just about recovered from the weekend. We can't say a big enough thank you to everyone who attended our open weekend at the National Marine Aquarium for making the weekend incredible. π
We welcomed thousands of people through the doors, gained valuable feedback on the National Marine Park and future projects, and had so much fun meeting you all. π
A huge #ThanksToYou to the National Lottyer Heritage Fund and National Lottery players for funding Plymouth Sound National Marine Park and making this event possible.

We love it when historic vessels pass through the marine park. Such a lovely sight π
This is the Lynher Tamar River barge. It was built in 1896 and underwent a restoration in 1990s. Now it is used for education workshops and sailing experiences around #PSNMP and the River Tamar.

Ever wondered what it's like to be a Plymouth Sound National Marine Park volunteer?
We had a chat with Maddie from @plymuni at one of our events, and here's her take on volunteering with us. We agree with Maddie; just give it a go! π

Today we're celebrating our amazing coastal ranger team as part of #EnglishTourismWeek23
Sam, Kate and Nick deliver events across Plymouth to a range of different people and ages, breaking down barriers and encouraging participation in, under, around and on the water.
You will also spot them at our open day at the National Marine Aquarium today, so do go up and say hello π
Great job team! π

We're looking forward to those after work swims in the summer months. π
It can't come quick enough for those of us who aren't brave enough to dive in when the sea temperature is below 10 degrees!
