We went on school holidays and the aquarium was packed (to be expected) but the parking was a nightmare.

Once parked and through the long line up to gain entry which doesn t separate prepaid from on the day tickets, you are ushered through into one of the most densely laid out family exhibits I ve ever seen. It s dark and narrow and some prams we re trying to go both directions and jut flat out couldn t fit.

Seal show arena is terribly humid and the show was great but hard to sit through. Staff had left signs out saying it was closed which was confusing. There is always a tonne of add ons in a place like this though selling photos was aggressive to put it nicely.

Jellyfish area was mirrored for effect but confusing to actually walk through given it was dark.

When comparing to Sydney aquarium and Melbourne it s just average.
