Please be aware that on wet days during school holidays and weekends, the Oceanarium can get extremely busy. Although the venue does not have a maximum capacity, it will stop admitting people when it reaches capacity. This means that if you visit on a wet day in the school holidays or on weekends, please be advised that you may have to queue for a long time to get in (some of which may be outside without cover), and that it will be very busy once you are inside the aquarium, particularly around feeding times. Please note that buying online does not guarantee fast-track entry.

Please be aware that Penguin Beach Encounter is an outside exhibit, so wet-weather clothing is advisable.

If you are a registered carer, you do not require a ticket and can enter on a complimentary basis subject to providing proof and being accompanied with a paying ticket.
