Aquarium Experiences
Why not take a deeper dive into the aquarium and take a VIP tour with a Marine Master? These hands-on experiences will give you an insight into how we keep the aquarium and our animals in tip-top condition.
VIP Aquarium Tours
Immerse yourself and spend an hour with an aquarium Marine Master for an in-depth guided tour.
Enjoy an exclusive tour of the aquarium, discover the sea life, the big characters, aquarium stories and what it takes to keep hundreds of marine critters healthy and happy. Get hands on feeding the fish and access behind the scenes areas not normally available to visitors.
