Positives:

  • Intimate photo spots: Ray Bay and Planet Jellies have dim lighting perfect for moody couple photos
  • Easy access: Moving sidewalks and ramps make the entire route smooth for walking side by side

Challenges:

  • Peak-time queues: Weekends and afternoons see long lines, especially at the shark tunnel entrance
  • Extra-fee events: Paid experiences like stingray swims and paint nights sell out fast—book in advance

Very cool! My son loved it today. Loved the moving sidewalk and all the different sea life. We went on a Tuesday in the summer around 12pm...clearly there is no limit on head count as it was packed! We were able to get around but the climbing area for kids was totally understand safe. They need to monitor this more honestly. We will be back but there is a lot of safety issues.

Amazing day out with the kids at the aquarium. My son is obsessed with sharks and so for him to be able to see them up close was so exciting! There was so much to see and do we spent a good two hours walking around and then my son played in the indoor play space that they had too. Although the expectations were to see under water wild life which delivered there was also a section on dragons and sn...

Wonderful experience, especially for kids! You can spend a whole afternoon there : there’s a lot to see! The promenade underneath the shark tank where we are surrounded by fish, turtles and stingrays is magnificent! The playground is a nice touch and allows kids to let out their energy before we keep on visiting. I loved the way the jellyfish were presented, and my 4yo too! We really had a fun day...
