Seven Seas Fish Trail
The Seven Seas Fish Trail is a great way of exploring Hull with children. It is a 2-mile tour of the more popular and historic areas of Hull.
What is the Seven Seas Fish Trail?
The Fish Trail is the most renowned of the trails around Hull. The trail features unique pieces of public art with 41 fish across the city centre. The trail takes in the picturesque Old Town and the thriving fruit market. It starts outside the City Hall Ticket office and it finishes at the top of Whitefriargate. The fish are usually on the ground.
The fish were created by artist Gordon Young in 1992 and all the fish represented are life-size. The biggest of which is a 10-foot ray overlooking Victoria Pier. There is also a bit of humour with some of the locations as there is a shark outside a former bank and an electric eel outside an electrical substation.
It’s a great family-friendly trail and a great way to see parts of Hull you would normally miss. You can download the trails PDF leaflet via the website link included above.
