Date Nights for Merlin Annual Passholders

Life can get busy fast.

If you’re like most of us, you may find it hard to find time to spend quality one-on-one time with your partner, and harder still to think of something romantic to do - without blowing the budget.

Luckily as a Merlin Pass Holder we’ve done the planning for you!

Here are our 5 top romantic date ideas for Merlin Pass Holders:

SEA LIFE London

#5 – SEA LIFE London Aquarium: London LATES

Treat your beau to a handheld wander through an underwater wonderland filled with sharks, rays, fish and jellyfish.

Enjoy a welcome glass of Prosecco upon arrival, before steeling yourself to stride across the glass walkway with sharks swimming inches beneath your feet.

Explore the Atlantic Cove area and the Pacific Wreck display where you can share an evening drink at the bar and enjoy the unique, quiet serenity that the aquarium offers.

The Rollercoaster Restaurant at Alton Towers Resort

#4 Alton Towers: Rollercoaster Restaurant

Keen to put a twist on date night dinners?

Head to the Rollercoaster restaurant at Alton Towers for your next romantic meal, and watch as your food loops around the room on a coaster track before arriving at your plate – there’s no dining experience quite like it!
