Wonderful place to visit. Adored the manta ray feeding, felt like l was in the water with all those huge fishes.
This place is amazing great for children adults and grandparents
Took my grandson and he also enjoyed the touching pool, the penguins were beautiful aswell
Too many prams allowed in at once, crowded. But an enjoyable outing with lots to see. Not too many staff members around to ask questions unfortunately.
Very nice and different experience for kids.
Kids can see live sea animals and get deep knowledge about them .
What a great time we had and the surprise at the end of the tour won’t spoil it.But it was amazing will be back.
Too many children running around without guards , good for 1 off if you want to see sea life in Australia
It was a nice couple of hours to spend at aquarium but we did not recognise which penguin was Pesto, when we asked the staff members, they didn’t know either which was hugely disappointing. Not many lifts available and one was not working at all.
Love watching all the different sea life. 4D short film was great and enjoyed watching the king peguins walking swimming and acting funny.
This is a good aquarium, but it is rather a place to visit with the kids… otherwise, could be a bit dull for adults.
The amazing exhibits were very interesting, and I enjoyed the interactive components of the exhibition as well.
An enjoyable few hours to view. Looking a little tired these days, could do with a bit of a freshen up.
The Pinguine and seahorses were my favorite part of sealife.
Because the seahorses looked like when they move they look like they were flying. The pinguine’s loved the pool and I like the pool too! I love sea life I will definitely come back again soon!
Able to looking up close penguins and sharks, salt water crocodiles and other variety of species. One would wonder how divest our world with all the living things from the smallest of single cell organism to the biggest animals in the world.
Meeting Pesto in person was very thrilling. Overall it’s worth the trip would definitely visit again.
Great variety of sea life to see, just don't go during school holiday time if you're a couple looking for an activity to do as it gets crowded and very noisy with school kids all around.
It was a hassle free process , everything was smooth while going in. Must see place in Melbourne specially if you have kids along with you
Also the view outside is amazing.
The best is the big fish tank lower down. We just went at the wrong time of the school holidays. Way too many prams and kids. Couldn’t get to some exhibits
Nothing special compared with my experiences in other Sealife, to crowded although we visited on Monday. But my son enjoy it so it's ok.
A good day out for visitors. Penguins were a highlight. Lots of school kids so don’t book at school holidays.
Animal exhibits lights at the last section of premises switched off at 450pm to chase customers out when closing time is at 500pm, how unprofessional.
Price is a little bit too steep for a 2.5 hour attraction.
I enjoyed seeing the penguins and the sea horse exhibit was good. I found the rest very chaotic with alot of people all travelling in all directions and too many things just in all directions
Fun trip. Slightly cheaper than buying online from aquarium website. We had a great time.weekdays probably better ,less busy time to go
It was okay. Great display of fish etc however the building is quite old. Could do with a serious overall.
It was easy to enter if you pre booked you tickets.
Sharks, turtles, and penguins were amazing to see.
Amazing place. It's up close with sea creatures.
Great place for family time.
Buy the ticket online so you can skip the line.
No warning was given that shark display was not open. The prime and most popular feature. Nor was there any price reduction for a reduced display.
The aquarium was top of the list for my 3-year-old niece on her trip to visit us in Melbourne. Prebooking our tickets with Viator let us skip the longer main ticket line and was all super seamless. Once inside, we had a blast following the kids' activity trail and engaging with all the interactive exhibits. The new Submerged exhibition was a highlight!
We loved the penguins but were disappointed that we couldn’t see the sharks as it was closed for maintenance and If I had known I would have waited to go to the Aquarium.
Not an aquarium I would return to great for little kids however even if The oceanarium wasn’t under construction there isn’t as much variety. we visit many aquarium’s and this one left us a lil flat
There was no order or structure to the flow of people navigating their way around the facility. There was also very little staff presence or guidance. It felt very chaotic and disorganised. It was also not as well maintained as I would have expected.
