A different side of marine life

Gentoo penguins

The official site features gentoo penguins among the aquarium’s highlights. Allow time to observe their behaviour; activity and visibility depend on the animals and the visit time.

Explore the marine habitats

Sharks

Lemon sharks are among the species highlighted by the aquarium. Follow the visitor route and use the on-site information to identify the animals you see.

Rays

Look for rays in the marine displays. Viewing opportunities vary, so take time at the windows without expecting a particular animal to remain in one spot.

Beyond the sea

Amazon rainforest

The rainforest section adds a land-based environment to the marine route. Include it in your visit rather than assuming every area contains only aquatic displays.
