Enjoy this FREE magical workshop with our storytelling mermaid as children create their own message in a bottle to treasure. A wonderful combination of storytelling, imagination and seaside creativity.

This summer, County Mall Crawley is being transformed into an immersive underwater world, with spectacular giant sea creatures including whales, jellyfish, dolphins, fish and an octopus floating overhead throughout the centre.

From 29th July to 29th August, families can enjoy 10 free events taking place every Wednesday and Saturday during the school holidays. Activities include magical mermaids, friendly pirates, storytelling, hands on crafts, biscuit decorating and sustainable activities to take home.

As you explore, be sure to visit the Sea of Tales Discovery Trail, where you will uncover hidden clues, fascinating ocean facts and marine conservation tips throughout the centre. Pick up a trail sheet, complete the questions and hand it in at the Food Court for a chance to win an annual family ticket to SEA LIFE Brighton.

Visitors can also help create the spectacular Coral Kingdom community art installation, making it a summer filled with creativity, adventure and ocean inspired fun for the whole family.
