  • Saw a powerful owl! Interesting Guides along the walk who were happy to share their wealth of knowledge. Gift shop has a lovely selection of various priced gifts (for others or self!). Cafe was nice, lovely way to spend a morning.
  • Always a lovely experience here. The boardwalk is great- something new to see each time you visit. On this visit, desk staff pointed out two roosting powerful owls at walk marker 78-79. Our first time seeing them! The cafe and gift shop are also great! I purchased some stuffed animals for my grandchildren and we had some takeaway treats from the cafe: apple pie, strawberry tart, and GF rhubarb muffin(favorite).
  • Really loved this place, would take a good 2 hours to go round the Sea acres rainforest, the fact that you would get to see some very unique trees, and very old one at that is quite stunning. The board walk is circular and you would live close to pure nature and breath absolutely unspoiled air while being inside. The most interesting aspect is that you get to see how the Fig trees grow and some are marvelous and can impart so much education. A fantastic place and a very refreshing feeling..
  • Easy walk and refreshing air with a few wild animals to spot, nice but average view of rainforest. Very short route which is a bit overpriced, they even charge $1 for one paper map after paying for tickets already. Still recommend to have a walk here, but the pricing can be fixed better.
  • We loved it, enjoyed our time by walking around, captured a blue tongue lizard, a turkey and a goanna. BUT be aware that they charge $1 for one piece of paper map/ a short introduction of animals, or at least inform customers that it cost $1 before we pay as it’s usually included in the ticket price. To be honest, this $1 paper map selling strategy sucks as people usually don’t mind to pay that $1 if it’s included in the ticket not after paid for the ticket and get charged another $1 for the paper map. Receptionist don’t inform customer either, this is quite rude.
