SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Melbourne Aquarium is located on the banks of the Yarra River. It's a circular structure decked out in a blue-white color scheme. The aquarium has many exciting areas to explore for an unforgettable travel experience. It's home to Australia's massive Australian saltwater crocodiles, a rich variety of seahorse and sea dragon species as well as king and gentoo penguins. The idea of having a bit of fun with huge sea turtles and hide and seek with Nemo is no fantasy here. You can even take a transparent glass bottom boat for an adventure behind the curtain while traveling back and forth on the water yourself in search of excitement.

Show More ReviewsThe aquarium was bigger than I expected, so we spent a good part of the day exploring. The sharks, penguins, and jellyfish were the most memorable! The layout was easy to follow, so it’s great for families, friends, or couples!! ✨🐙🐠🦞🦈
