We will be back! - Such a small price to pay for a well thought out experience, we paid for the sensory bag also which was a great investment for Master Seven who has ASD/SPD. The environment has lots of areas to relax and reset, staff were helpful and being there during the first feeding times of the day, was a great way to gain the extra knowledge without the overstimulation. Will definitely return and recommend to others!

Need to visit - Watching the 2 divers feed the fish in the tank from the viewing platform and seeing the little penguins being fed. The whole experience was more than we had expected.

Penguins - enough said! - If you are staying in Napier this is definitely worth a couple of hours of your time. Its only a short walk along the beach from the centre. Its small but perfectly formed. Make sure you see the penguins being fed but all the exhibits were good

Nice small aquarium - Nice little aquarium. We were a bit surprised that many of the exhibits were from other parts of the world. Aquarium is well laid out and easily accessible off Marine Drive on the sea front.

Great place to take children - A nicely laid out aquarium, plenty of fish and the likes as you would expect, less expected the section on local fossils, the Kiwi’s and Tuatara. Great for children with interactive spaces.

Great example of sea life. - We found the aquarium very well set out with a huge amount of exhibits. We walked through the tunnel a number of times to get a good look at all the fish. It was very well set out. There was also a dark room with a kiwi behind glass sadly it was impossible to see and we didn’t get a photograph. All we could make out was make out was a faint shape moving about.
