The Marine Station’s lecture facilities have amazing views out across Plymouth Sound and with movable walls the space can be configured for large class or smaller group teaching, meetings and has even been used as a pop up art gallery.
The laboratory on the ground floor, which can accommodate up to 50 students, is used for sample examination and analysis and the aquarium is supplied with a continuously flowing saltwater system which allows samples to be collected, stored, examined and returned to the sea with minimal disturbance.
