AQWA: Aquarium of Western Australia

Zoos / Aquariums, Perth


Fodor's Review:

Huge tanks filled with some 400 different species of local sea creatures let you view what's beneath the waves. Sharks, stingrays, octopus, cuttlefish, lobsters, turtles, and thousands of fish swim overhead as you take the moving walkway beneath a clear acrylic tunnel. You can even snorkel or scuba dive with the sharks at 1 PM and 3 PM daily. Mammals like Australian sea lions and New Zealand fur seals are also part of the show.
