Children Will Have a Blast
Children love the Aquarium as there are many interactive experiences such as turtle tunnel, tide pool and touch tank- they will learn so much about the Great Barrier Reef and its inhabitants. There is even a special tank for all the fluorescent marine creatures; it looks like hundreds of Christmas lights have been submerged in the water!
Find Out About Different Ecosystems Importance to the Reef
Aquarium is divided into different ecosystems and there is a comprehensive gallery about each and every one of them. Expositions start with the river systems, creeks and streams, waterways and billabongs, tropical rainforest and even the forest floor and it is shown how all the previous is connected to the Great Barrier reef.
You will find out about the life in mangroves- who is Mangrove Jack and where the Estuarine Crocodile is hiding. Great Barrier Reef exposition is sure to impress with small and colourful and big and menacing marine creatures. Stingrays, sharks and sawfish are just a few to leave you awestruck.

Don’t worry, there really isn’t that much to be scared of, especially after you learn the simple ways how to protect yourself from the jellyfish.
