About this experience

The aquarium's specialist team cares for all animals on site. The guided visit takes you through the famous Dangerous Reef tunnel, where sharks swim overhead and around you in a 360-degree underwater experience. Exhibits showcase everything from graceful sea turtles and stingrays to colourful tropical fish and mysterious deep-sea creatures. Interactive touch tanks allow you to feel the smooth skin of rays and horseshoe crabs as part of the guided visit, while educational displays provide detailed information about each species' biology and natural habitats.
