"Great place to spend some time"

Reviewed October 11, 2020 NEW

We spent almost all day here. Huge variety of different animal species. Jellyfish are extremly beautifull. We noticed that all of the animals are well taken care off.

"exceeded expectations"

Reviewed October 02, 2020 NEW

We went with family and were expecting the usual over-commercialized, crowded, noisy venue that is commonly found at tourist destinations. However, we were pleasantly surprised with the attention to ecology education and gorgeous exhibits -- loved the colourful jellyfish tank and undersea glass tunnel. Try to go during the week to avoid a crowd.

It's a gem and I will come back. The displays are awesome. Organized and clean. We spent a great morning there and learned a lot about fish and oceans live.

"Wonderful displays and good experience"

Reviewed September 20, 2020

Of course, geared towards kids, we really enjoyed the displays and in spite of a few wee ones who were just being little ones, we not only enjoyed the aquarium but also watching children enjoy being within the displays with the clever set ups.

An absolute must see, well worth the money. The tunnel is unreal, great area for kids and adults. There are lots of exhibits and a kids play area.
