Come and have a quacking time at our wetlands as you enjoy our Easter Duck Trail. The perfect opportunity to get outdoors with all the family. Explore our amazing wetlands as you hunt for 25 bright yellow ducks and discover more about our real life ducks.
To start your adventure, pick up a trail card when you get here. Its £1 a go and there’s a tasty treat if you find them all.
As well as our Easter Duck Trail, you can get creative in our craft room. Buy a rubber duck, colour it in and then bring it back to the centre on Bank Holiday Monday 2 May to enter it into our Annual Duck Race. We'll also have other crafts including badges and keyrings.
Keeping with the pond theme, our new Pond Zone will be open everyday of the Easter holidays from 1.30pm to 3pm! Grab a net and delve into pond dipping - we have everything you need to uncover incredible underwater life.
For those looking for an extra adventure, head over to our canoe safari area where you can hire a canoe or go on a relaxing boat tour - it's a brilliant way to explore part of our centre that's not accessible on foot.
During your visit to Martin Mere, there's loads of activities for the whole family. Go on a wild walk adventure, build a den, enjoy our outdoor adventure playground, brave the stepping stones and enjoy watching the wildlife from our discovery hide.
