SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium | Yarra River Family Attraction
Dive into an extraordinary underwater adventure right in the heart of the city with SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium! Perfectly positioned along the Yarra River in the Melbourne CBD, this world-class attraction is home to over 10,000 marine animals across 12 immersive themed zones.
Journey through sub-Antarctic ice at the famous Penguin Playground to watch King and Gentoo penguins waddle and glide, then step inside Ocean Invaders—a mesmerizing exhibit that brings you face-to-face with the glowing world of jellyfish. Marvel at massive grey nurse sharks, stingrays, and tropical fish as you walk beneath the ocean in the 2.2-million-litre glass Oceanarium tunnel. From meeting Coowonga, the giant saltwater crocodile, to exploring interactive tide pools at Rocky Shores, there is something to inspire ocean lovers of all ages.
Designed for hands-on learning and family fun, the aquarium features daily animal presentations, keeper talks, interactive touch pools, and an immersive 4D Cinema experience. Rain or shine, it provides the ultimate weather-proof family day out in Victoria's capital.
