Our visit to sea life sydney was a great experience as all staff members were willing to help and offer kindness, you walk into the aquarium and are excitedly greeted by an employee who takes a picture for you to keep as a memory of the day, along the way through there is so many wonderful sea creatures to see, feel and even go on a little short boat experience to see my personal favourite the penguins. Overall a great experience and would recommend for all ages!

We had such a wonderful and memorable experience! Even though we arrived really late, the staff were very kind and accommodating. They still allowed us to ride the boat to get a closer look at the penguins and watch them up close, which made our visit even more special. We really appreciated their kindness and effort to make sure we didn’t miss out on the experience. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable!

We absolutely loved it, my 7 year old granddaughter was amazed and had the best time. Her favourite part was walking through the tunnel with all the sharks etc swimming above her. Would definitely go again.

We had so much fun walking through and seeing all the different sea life creatures. We did have trouble to start off with, when we had an issue and were unable to go earlier we attempted to reschedule or get a refund however we're still working with that one. Overall our experience we got to go on was so much fun.
