Seriously worth a visit, huge display of salt and fresh water species. Crocodiles, sharks, stingrays, jellyfish, snakes, frogs and bugs! The list goes on! Cool tunnels and viewing holes for the kids to explore all the creatures! Pricing was fair for tickets, season pass is definitely worth it for the locals. Great place for the kids, some cool interactive displays. Toilets and change tables spread throughout. Highly recommend a visit!
