reefworld aquarium and shark swim

A bit overpriced for what you see but in saying that great for the kids, especially gettin up close with the turtles.

Was such an amazing experience hand feeding and patting the giant sea turtles it was the best thing I've ever done so far!! If you love turtles I suggest u have to come here! Was good to learn about different animals whilst walking around the aquarium (there is information on so many different sea creatures) will definitley have to come back

The reefworld place is pretty damn good. Wasn't particularly keen on going because I was sick but my friend dragged me there and honestly glad he did. The owner or manager was a super chill guy with a winning personality. Between getting to pat turtles, feed sharks and giant fish you really do get a good experience from it. Seriously a great place to spend part of a day and have a genuinely good time.

there is no dislikes about this place everything was fantastic, our daughters had a blast feeding the turtles and sharks. The people who own the place were lovely and answered any questions u had fantastic

This was fun loads of information, cheap and you can touch the turtles ! Feed the turtles ! At no extra coast when you go in and also come and go as you please in the day you pay. We had heaps of fun sorry I don't remember the guys name, but he was super friendly and very interactive with all guest at well . Will recommend this place to friends and family again.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. It's not as "glamorous" or "polished" as some aquatic attractions are, but this visit was one of the most memorable I have had. The viwing tanks are lit by sunlight, and water levels are regulated according to tidal cycles, and had an impressive array of beautiful fish, sharks, crabs, and starfish. I loved the interactive aspects of the experience....patting the turtles and feeding the sharks. Interestingly, what also impressed me was the staff member who greeted us when we arrived. He advised us ..."the more you look, the more you see"....and he was right. Later on he took the time to show us specialty feeding of "baby" fish, and pointed out features and aquatic behaviours. He came across as someone who loved Australian marine life, and was passionate about their welfare. He also had affectionate names for many of the fish. If you visit you'll get to meet "Greg", a huge Groper in the central tank! Well worth a visit.

This aquarium featured such rarities as - - The pest Aptasia Anemone, in seriously massive quantities.- Barramundi, so rare that we eat them.- A single Clarkii Clownfish, presumably the second had earlier committed suicide in an attempt to cheer the other up.- A most unwell looking Six Bar Angelfish.- Common aquarium fish the Volitans Lionfish.- Three bored Green Turtles.- Some very frightened Mullet. I wouldn't recommend this place.

This aquarium is not very big, and it didn't take us long to look at everything, but was worth it just for the experience of being able to pat the sea turtles in the outdoor enclosure. They swim right up to the edge of the pool and let you touch them-so amazing! Our kids (and us) were amazed and we spent quite a while out there with the turtles. The indoor tanks are beautiful with a wide variety of sea life in them. A little more information around the aquarium on the different species of fish would be nice.

The staff are very friendly and informative. They were finding homes for injured fish as we arrived. Yes the entry fee is $20 p/p however, this fee does allow you to come back as many times per day, and allows you to feed and interact with the turtles and sharks at each feeding time. This would cost over $90 p/p at a much larger aquarium. My Wife and I enjoyed our time here.

We love our aquariums and we thought this was very expensive for what it was. Very small indeed, we saw it all in 20 mins, and that was having a good look in every tank and having a chat about what we were looking at.The kids did really enjoy it, so that's the main thing, they fed the fish in the big tank, then we all went outside to feed the big sea turtles in a huge open tank, where we could touch them, which the turtles really seemed to enjoy too.There wasn't any talk about the turtles or any of the fish unless a question was asked, so it just seemed all a bit 'feed the fish/turtles, and that's that'.Because we got there at 1pm, and the fish feeding wasn't until 2.30pm, it took us about 20 mins to see it all, so then we were hanging around outside for ages, went for a walk up the beach to the pier and back, just to kill a bit of time, then we thought we'd go into the restaurant, that's attached to the Aquarium to have a coffee and cold drinks while waiting to do the fish feeding, only to find it closed at 2pm, so you couldn't even get a drink! I understand them closing for food at 2pm, but for coffees and drinks seems a bit silly.Well we were really very disappointed in it and won't be recommending it or going back there again.

Seeing the aquarium from the outside, We were quite disappointed, because it looked very small. We payed, entered and the actual aquarium itself was Okay. The glass was dirty, scratched and you can't really take photos of the fish. Then we went outside to the fish tank with turtles. The fish were friendly and actually come up to you so you can them! Weird right? Turtles are also in the tank and we touched them a few times also. Staff were friendly and useful.

This was wonderful for my 5yr old daughter, she got to hand feed the big groper and the sea turtles and sharks. She even got to reach out and shake hands with the enormous sea turtle, a truly memorable experience. My only complaint was how ridiculously expensive it was for adults, $20ea for my mum and myself given that it was all about the kids is just too much.

Staff were best friends and had an excellent knowledge of their exhibits. This is not Sea world or Sydney aquarium but a very personal family experience. Pass outs available. feed the turtles give them a good scratch on the back and come back again later in the day to feed all the other fish

We fed the Turtles and the Sharks and the other fish at the designated feeding times. It was a really fun and personal experience - as our guide was really helpful and informative. He obviously loves his job and being around these wonderful sea creatures. Highly recommended! Next time we'll have to try the restaurant next door too.

Beautiful aquarium with great variety of fish, lots of included interactive activities such as fish feeding, shark feeding, turtle feeding, touching the turtles as they swim by and shark swim for an additional fee. Attached restaurant has a great view and delicious meals.
