Very disappointing! Not worth the money. Large tank needs a good clean. Wouldn't recommend. Expected more. A lot better aquariums in Melbourne & Perth.

Beware scam on digi photos

Overall we enjoyed the aquarium though we have visited many better ones including Perth. The experience was rather spoiled by the intrusive background music and the poor labelling and overall felt over -commercialised. Visitors should beware that the digi photos included" free" with your entrance is just a scam to get your credit card details. We were shocked that the aquarium is associated with such fraudulent practice.
Smooth entrance, no...

Aquarium was very clean and lots to look at. We were fortunate to be there right when they opened and did not have to wait long or deal with any crowds.
A must-see visit ...

We got a good deal with Trip Advisor, much better than buying tickets when we got there. Aquarium was fantastic, lots of diversity and so much interesting wild life to see.
