The day out was great. My daughter who turned 6 on the day. Birthday present. I was only disappointed in seeing my bank statement. As I didn't know that headout is not Australian, and got charged international fees. This needs to be disclosed better

I had my 4 year old grandson staying and with rainy weather this was an ideal place to go. We stayed 3 hours he was in charge with the map and was enthralled by all the exhibitions and the seal show. He went home that night to his family full of things to tell them. Booking last minute on line was easy and saved us considerably on the entrance price.

Easy booking system and receipt of tickets. Clear ticketing enabled quick entry to the attraction. Sea Life itself was not as big as I expected. We went through all of it in an hour. Good for children and the elderly or those not familiar with ocean creatures.

All staff so friendly and helpful. The train and infrastructure was so impressive. The running commentary was the best. A lovely breakfast onsite before we started. Easy parking. We were sorry when it finished.
