Our building is over 20 years old and we are extremely excited about the renovations which will result in brand new exhibits and displays. The shark tunnel is undergoing an upgrade which will provide us with a state-of-the-art shark facility. While the... More

Prices reflect a decent activity for the kids to do. Seal show is a bit boring but we had small children who have limited attention span. More

“Closed Attractions”

Reviewed 1 February 2012

We had visitors up from Melbourne who wanted to see Underwater World. Unbeknownst to us, the shark aquarium was shut, and would remain so until September for refurbishment. I relaise things need a touch up but it would have been nice to have been prewarned with advertisements. More

“Good for kids”

Reviewed 22 January 2012

This was an excellent way to spend a rainy morning at the beach with young children aged from 2 to 12. We saw a talk on the otters and the seal show. It was pretty crowded in the seal show, but the otter talk was not so populated, entertaining and informative. The shark tunnel is currently closed, and there is... More
