About Logan Fish Pond - Marine Life Centre
Logan fish pond is a fully restored Victorian fish larder in a unique setting. A historic tidal pool created by a blow hole which formed some time during the last ice age.
The first time visitor to Logan Fish Pond is often amazed and surprised by what they see. Not until they enter through the original Fish Keeper's Cottage and have their first glimpse of the pond below do they have any idea of what this unique and historic attraction holds.
In 1788 Andrew McDouall Laird of Logan decided to create a Fish Larder for storing live sea fish by adapting a natural rock formation on the shore. The work took 12 years and was finished in 1800. So Logan Fish Pond as it became known is over 200 years old.
Many of our visitors return year after year and indeed some have been doing so for fifty or sixty years, feeding the fish today as they remember doing so as children.
Recent additions to the original pond include Touch Pools, Cave Aquarium and Gift Shop.
