Info Centre
The MWDW Info Centre engages both locals and visitors from a social venue in the heart of Peel. Being in the same building as Cranky’s Coffee Shop, you can grab yourself a brew, or stop for lunch, whilst learning about our incredible Manx marine life.
Discover the whales, dolphins, porpoises, basking sharks and other marine life that can be seen around the Isle of Man. Find out what species can be seen, how to spot them and where to go. Borrow a litter picker to help keep Peel tidy and buy some merchandise.
We welcome private group visits, but the space is small and limited to 8 people.Â
Please note that there are three very friendly resident dogs in the building. They can be quickly put away if needed. Please contact us prior to your visit if you wish for the dogs to be out of the building during your visit as this can be accommodated.Â
