Reptiles Undercover!

Slither over to London Wetland Centre this half term and enter the fascinating world of reptiles. All weekend there will be crocodiles, snakes, turtles, lizards and many more for you to meet up close.

Find out more about these scaled-up cousins of the reptiles that live here at London Wetland Centre. Far from being scary monsters these shy animals often hide away so this is a fantastic opportunity for you to see them up close.

And what's more, the display is indoors so you can enjoy your day out even if it's raining!

The big stars of the weekend get their own special shows... Snap up the chance to see Crocodile Encounters, where you'll be able to meet a caiman and a crocodile! Hear about the amazing world of crocodiles, their behaviour, how they've evolved and adapted, and why many are now under threat.

Throughout half term, we will also be hosting a whole range of reptile related family activities to keep children amused throughout half term. Follow our discovery trail through different types of wetlands or make your own reptile to take home. There will be sssssssnake stories and crocodile crafts and, of course, everyone's favourite pastime - pond dipping.
