Night at the Aquarium Tour

As the sun goes down on the Great Barrier Reef, a whole new world awakens. Corals glow, colourful reef fish seek shelter and predators begin their night hunt. At the same time, coastal forests stir with life, as reptiles, amphibians and insects emerge from their burrows to seek out food in the safety of the shadows. Night at the Aquarium gives you a glimpse into the unique world of the region’s nocturnal creatures and their behaviours as they move about in the darkness.

Cairns Aquarium is one of the city’s top attractions, but to learn more about its residents—and its conservation work—a behind-the-scenes tour is the way to visit. A wildlife educator takes you around, giving you access to parts that the general public usually can’t enter. Visit the turtle hospital, handfeed cownose rays, and get insider insights at the reptile breeding facility. Learn more than you would on a regular visit.
