The Anglesey Sea Zoo was opened in 1983 when the owners of a lobster wholesale business realized that their lobster tanks had become attractions in themselves.. In 2007 the attraction was sold to research ecologists who have since gone on to develop research and conservation projects based at the aquarium, as well as several community conservation initiatives.
