SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium, Auckland

This SEA LIFE aquarium was good. The day we went it was not so busy, so we took our time to see everything and didn’t have to rush through. It was cool to see the sharks and the giant manta ray swim over our heads! Even though we all were adults, we enjoyed, it would definitely be a fun filled experience for the kids. The penguins are cute. Felt bad for the small jelly fishes swimming around in circles in one place, but they have no brain, so hopefully they don’t feel anything. The ambience of the place was good. I have been to the S.E.A. Aquarium in Singapore, that’s massive, compared to that NZ one is smaller but still impressive. 100 percent recommended 😊

What an amazing experience! A first for our young family and we were awestruck by the marvel. An aquatic adventure like no other. It has to be lived to be believed. I was particularly amazed by the sheer size of the sharks and giant manta rays swimming over my head! We absolutely loved it specially with our 1 year old. Lots to do and see for the whole family. Kudos all around!

Good fun for the kids. Unfortunately we visited on what must've been the busiest day of the year - with poor weather and it being during the holidays. Definitely book in advance to secure a spot during the holidays. Our daughter still had a blast and enjoyed the playground in the middle. We didn't end up having lunch here, the food looked pretty average and it was busy. The penguins were the highlight for us. I have lots of fond memories of visiting so I'm glad to see it has held up. Lots to educate the kids too if they have the patience

This is an awesome place, is obviously meant for kids but as an 18 year old I loved the penguins and other sea animals. Is a very interesting thing to learn about and there was a lot of different species. The penguins were the highlight for me because how close and easy was to see them and take photos. This is a must-do in Auckland!

Wonderful! We were 14, 50 and 74 in age and we all loved it. We did 2 laps of the whole thing and about 5 of the under water shark tank. Thoroughly recommend. Will do the Penguin experience next time, sadly we dipped out this time around but they were still just magical to see.
