Experiencia fantástica: The admission prices are reasonable. But if you book days in advance they are cheaper. We paid an extra $15 per person for the Behind-the-Scenes Tour I loved seeing all the animals. There was an adorable baby penguin and a fun hands-on section where we got to touch some marine life. Walking through the underwater tunnels was definitely a highlight, it felt like being surrounded by the ocean — though it was crowded at times. The Behind-the-Scenes Tour was a great experience. We saw how they house for injured animals and protect local marine life. There were three green sea turtles recovering, and we got to look down into the big pool above the tunnels — seeing the sharks and other animals swimming below was amazing. The seal show was light-hearted and fun, especially Ruby, a playful five-year-old seal. She was absolutely adorable! In total, we saw three seals during the show. The café, which had some food options — mainly small snacks and pies. So, don’t expect a full meal there. The only downside was, the Behind-the-Scenes Tour felt a little short, and unfortunately, no photos or videos were allowed during it. A wonderful experience and perfect would definitely come back again!!
Hi Tea,

We appreciate your feedback about the Behind-the-Scenes Tour. It's nice to know you enjoyed seeing how we care for injured animals and protect local marine life.

We're glad you found the admission prices fair and enjoyed the hands-on section and underwater tunnels, even if it got a little crowded. Your enthusiasm is infectious, and we can't wait to welcome you back for another ocean adventure!

Experiencia fantástica: Was here 20 years ago as a kid, now back again as an adult. Still as incredible as ever! That said I miss the 2006 Jeep Fishtank. In where the engine was the filter system. Pretty mad lol.

Experiencia fantástica: Our family with teenage kids wanted to go in here and we all loved it. Spent a good 2 and a bit hours in here as we explored the aquarium. Has so many sea creatures and even warning signs when you enter the penguin area as it stinks! You ignore the smell when you see the penguins and the cafe was reasonably priced. The seal talk was great and informative and kept my teens engaged and out of the heat for a few hours. Customer service at front desk was amazing also.
Hi Kristie,
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear your family enjoyed SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. It's great that the penguins charmed you, and we're glad the seal talk entertained your teens while you found relief from the heat. Our front desk team will appreciate your kind words. Thanks for visiting, and we hope to see you again soon!

Experiencia fantástica: Busy
Experiencia fantástica: Good but cost is something to think about.
Experiencia positiva: Smaller than I expected- Gets really crowded with little space to move. Was still enjoyable for the family.
Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic place for family fun, kids loved the whole experience
Experiencia fantástica: A great experience for the whole family. A half day experience. Could be a bit boring for the older kids. Was fun and reasonably priced for a family of 4.

Experiencia positiva: Great experience, my only concern is the steepness of the Ramos for mobility users, I had to get my wife to take my scooter up the ramp and I had to walk due to the weight vs incline, some of the spaces are a touch snug to maneuver through, a lift from the bottom most level back to the surface level would be a great benefit to those with mobility issues and aids
Experiencia positiva: Kids loved it.. very family friendly.
Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic experience. Kids thoroughly loved it. Seal talk and show was great. We went during school holidays so it did get busy but was still able to easily move around. I'd recommend buying tickets in advanced.
Experiencia fantástica: The best aquarium ever with let's of sea life marine, good and nice staff. The best experience ever
Experiencia fantástica: What can I say about this experience! So much diverse sea life in one place. Brilliant
Experiencia negativa: Aquarium is definitely outdated in layout and exhibitions. Penguin Enclosure does not need to be on the nose, not fishy but ammonia/urine stench. General lack of different species. Cairns Aquarium is the minimum standard. Sunshine Coast is such a popular destination, time to lift the standard.
Experiencia positiva: It's ok not the best layout as there are several choke points, but there are fish lol
Experiencia fantástica: Sehr schöner Zoo, auch die Tiere werden in grossen Gehägen gehalten
Experiencia fantástica: This is a review for the amazing customer service I received from Brontë Hahn via email. They answered every and any question, and replied within the day or the next morning. They also helped me with a refund for the dive extreme experience, as I was not allowed to participate due to medical issues. They did this promptly and everything was a smooth process. Despite not getting to do the experience, I was so happy with the customer service I received and I'm grateful. Thank you, Tahnee.
Experiencia positiva: The layout is a bit odd and they let too many people inbut other than that it was pretty good

Experiencia fantástica: This is a great attraction for both kids and adults, especially if the weather is a bit dodgy. You can easily spend a couple of hours here with kids, so much to see
Experiencia fantástica: Well set out. Lighting is excellent for photography with my phone. Enjoyed the visit. Arrived 9.30 and filled in a couple of hours no problem
Experiencia positiva: Great for little kids. On the expensive side though for entry.

Experiencia positiva: Interesting and informative way to spend a couple of hours, but it isn't large and is a bit pricey. Don't fall for their ads saying you can buy adult tickets online from them for $36 each, only to find that their cheapest adult online tickets are $44. Go to Agoda instead, select "Activities", and you can buy the adult tickets for <$36 each, securely pay through PayPal or a credit card, then receive a QR code one can have scanned for entry.
Hi T B,
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear you found your visit interesting and informative. We always aim to provide a memorable experience for our guests.
We appreciate your feedback regarding ticket pricing. It's important to us that our visitors feel they're getting good value, and we'll definitely look into the pricing discrepancies you've mentioned. Your tip about using Agoda is helpful, and we're glad you found a way to enjoy our aquarium at a better price.
We hope to welcome you back for another adventure under the sea soon!

Experiencia positiva: We quite enjoyed seeing the aquarium, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. It isn't large, we saw all of it and took our time (& lots of pics), in a bit over 2 hours but it's easy to walk away having been entertained while learning new things, a great combination. Buying tickets was one of the most difficult parts as their ads say general admission adult tickets are $36 of purchased online, but when one goes online the cheapest are $44. It annoys me when companies do this so a Google search led me to Agoda where I bought 2 adult tickets for $71, they sent me a QR code for the tickets and the aquarium staff just scan them on entry. I would readily recommend going, it was an interesting experience.
Hi T Bowers,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your visit and found our team to be friendly and knowledgeable. It's great to know that you had a fun and educational time exploring the aquarium and capturing those memorable moments.
We sincerely apologize for the confusion regarding the ticket pricing. We understand how frustrating that can be, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We'll definitely look into this to ensure clearer communication in the future.
We're delighted to hear that you would recommend us and found your visit interesting. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure under the sea soon!

Experiencia fantástica: Under tunnel experience was amazing
Experiencia fantástica: Love that they offer free entry for teachers once a year!
Experiencia fantástica: Love walking under the sharks and stingrays in the tunnel
Thank you, Theresa, for your great 5-star review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your visit to SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. It’s wonderful to know that our visitors have fun! We hope you met some of our amazing sea creatures and made some new fishy friends. We look forward to welcoming you back for another fun adventure soon! See you next time!
Experiencia fantástica: Great for kids. Good way to pass an hour or two. Staff were friendly and helpful
Experiencia positiva: Good fun for the kids and teens take some extra $$ for pics with seals kids won't forget it
Experiencia fantástica: Fabulous displays, great seal show. Allow several hours for a visit as there is do much to see. Great day trip for kids and adults alike. Online tickets are cheaper. Weekdays are best if possible. Lots of eateries in surrounding streets or cafe on site. Plenty of parking nearby when we visited.
Experiencia negativa: Animals are not entertainment, they are living beings. Stop the shows.
Experiencia negativa: Do not pay for photos with the seals. Terrible experience. We paid for one group photo and a single for my eldest daughter but only ended up getting the group as they had ‘run out of food for the seal’ so they had to take him away. No refund for the photo we didn’t get and when we were finished and picked up the group photo, the quality was terrible. One child was sticking out their tongue in one picture and one child was looking away in another. Total waste of money. Again, do not waste your money on the photos
Hi Cara,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm truly sorry to hear about the disappointing encounter you had with the seal photo session. It sounds like it was a frustrating situation, especially when you were looking forward to capturing those special moments with your family.
We strive to create memorable experiences for all our visitors, and it's clear we fell short in this instance. Your feedback is invaluable, and we'll be looking into what happened to ensure this doesn't occur again in the future.
We deeply appreciate your input and feedback. We do not have any contact details for you from this review, so if you would like to email [email protected] we would love to hear from you so we can make this right.

Experiencia fantástica: Worth to visit here! Must go!
Experiencia fantástica: Very neatly maintained . The staff have been helpful when asked any questions. Love how they’ve taken care of the sea creatures . Must visit specially with young kids
Experiencia fantástica: Super cool sea life and great seal show. Great place for kids but can be busy sometimes
Experiencia fantástica: We took the grandkids here during the winter school holidays it was thoroughly enjoyed. It is well worth the visit
Experiencia fantástica: Well maintained and very entertaining we loved it!

We hope to see you again soon for more underwater adventures! Wishing you lots of fun until next time! Best, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: I love this place, my 7 month old son is obsessed with watching the fish in the underwater tunnel. They raise money for conservation work and research and rescue of injured and sick wildlife like turtles and sea lions/seals. It's usually fairly quiet on a weekday during school times, it gets pretty packed on a weekend or holiday times but even with a crowd it's still lots of fun, I like to walk through slowly and take our time looking at and watching all the different types of fish, sharks, rays and all the other ocean creatures swimming around.
Hi Rhea, Thank you for your review! We're so happy to hear that you and your little ocean explorer had a great time at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. It's wonderful that your son is already fascinated by the underwater world. We take pride in our conservation efforts, and it’s nice to know you appreciate our work with wildlife rescue and research. Weekdays are a perfect time for a relaxed visit, and we’re glad you enjoy taking your time to appreciate our marine life. Thank you for sharing your experience and for supporting our mission to protect ocean life. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for more underwater fun! See you soon! The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: Brilliant aquarium experience. Every display was stunning with sea life. Seal island show was a hit with rescued Seals. The Tunnel is truly awesome. Cons, too crowded, prams are an issue with passage.
Hi Gareth! Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your visit to our aquarium and that you liked the Seal Island show. Those rescued seals really know how to entertain, don’t they? We're also glad you thought the Tunnel was great—it's one of our favorites too! We understand that the crowd and strollers can sometimes make it hard to get around. We're always trying to find ways to improve the experience for everyone. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for the great rating. We hope to see you again soon for another fun underwater adventure! Best wishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: Great place to go to see a large variety of sea life from seals to octopus to sea horses. Very extensive tunnel with a variety of sharks, stingrays, other small fish, etc. The seal show is a great watch. I would definitely recommend coming to sea life if you are looking for relatively well priced entertainment for an hour or two.
Hi Will, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're happy to hear you had a great time exploring the sea with us. It sounds like you really enjoyed seeing the different sea creatures and the seal show—our seals love entertaining visitors like you! We're glad you found the experience to be a good value for a couple of hours of fun. We hope to see you again soon for another underwater adventure!

Experiencia fantástica: SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast is an absolute gem and a must-visit for anyone exploring the area! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by friendly staff and a vibrant, well-designed space that instantly sparked excitement. The ocean tunnel was a highlight — walking through and seeing sharks, rays, and giant groupers swimming overhead was truly breathtaking. The exhibits are thoughtfully laid out, interactive, and educational, making it a fantastic experience for both kids and adults. We especially loved the playful seals at the Seal Island show — they were not only adorable but also very entertaining. There’s a great balance of hands-on experiences (like the touch pool) and immersive displays, with plenty of opportunities to learn about marine conservation. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and easy to navigate, and the staff were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the animals. Overall, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast exceeded our expectations. Whether you’re a family with young kids, a couple looking for a unique date, or a solo traveler who loves marine life, this place is a fantastic way to spend a few hours. Highly recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: What a neat place! My 10yr old Marine obsessed kid loved every bit of this place. We did the 'behind the scenes tour' which was the info overload my daughter wanted.

You are doing an amazing job team, well done ❤️

Experiencia fantástica: Cool little spot. Took the missus here and she loved it. Make sure not to miss out on the seal show, it's quite entertaining. Also tried the VR experience and for $12.50 per person I'd say it's worth it

Experiencia fantástica: recently had the incredible opportunity to take the "Behind the Scenes Turtle Tour" at SEA LIFE, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! If you're looking for something truly special beyond the main exhibits, this tour is an absolute must-do. From the moment we started, our guide (who was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate!) made the whole experience fascinating. We were given exclusive access to areas the public never sees, which really brought to life the immense effort and dedication that goes into caring for these magnificent creatures. Seeing the turtles behind-the-scenes area you saw food preparation area and quarantine tanks was eye-opening and gave me a newfound appreciation for the complex operations of the aquarium. The absolute highlight for me was, of course, the chance to get up close and personal with the sea turtles. The resident green sea turtle' was a truly magical moment I won't soon forget! It was amazing to learn about their individual personalities and the specific care they receive. Our guide shared so many interesting facts about their diets, health, and the critical role they play in ocean ecosystems. Beyond the close encounters, the tour was incredibly informative about SEA LIFE's vital conservation efforts. Learning about their "Breed, Rescue, Protect" initiatives and how they rehabilitate injured turtles gave me a much deeper understanding of the challenges facing these animals and how we can all contribute to their protection. The small group size made the experience feel very personal, and there was plenty of opportunity to ask questions, which our guide answered with genuine enthusiasm. It truly enhanced my overall visit to SEA LIFE. I highly recommend the "Behind the Scenes Turtle Tour" to anyone – families, couples, or solo adventurers – who wants a deeper understanding of marine conservation and an unforgettable interaction with these gentle giants. It's an inspiring and educational experience that you won't regret!
Hi Heather, Wow, your review just made our day! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time on the "Behind the Scenes Turtle Tour" at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium.

Our guides are indeed passionate about what they do, and it's wonderful to know that their enthusiasm and knowledge made your experience even more special.

We're also really proud of our "Breed, Rescue, Protect" initiatives, and it means a lot to us that you appreciated learning about our conservation efforts.

Experiencia negativa: One word: underwhelming. Very basic with barely enough space to manoeuvre around other visitors. Not much to look at and really quite boring. We were done in 15 minutes tops.

Experiencia positiva: We really enjoyed our visit. Animals are well cared for and the staff were lovely. I would however like to see them manage the issue of baby strollers. There were SO many strollers inside and which impacted how close we could get to exhibits as we were often and I mean often blocked by strollers.
Hi Meghan Nicole, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us!

Experiencia negativa: We went to Sea Life for a family outing, for a birthday. It was very pricey for what it was, as you have to pay for a lot of activities, my grandson was so excited to see the fairy penguins that he went under a rope where a photographer was, she screamed at me to get him out of there, at the time I was actually bending over to pick him up but having her having her scream at me was very upsetting.
Hi D, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

It’s important to us that all our guests, especially the little ones, have a memorable and enjoyable experience.

We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you and your family back in the future for a more positive experience. Warm regards, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: We took our 1 year old for his birthday and he had a great time! This is a family-friendly place that's good for younger children and families that don't want to pay an arm and a leg for the Gold Coast experience with rides included when they won't even use them. Plenty of parking and definitely book your tickets online before you go 101%!
Hi Iryna, Thank you so much for your great review! We’re happy to hear that your child had a fun time celebrating his birthday with us at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. It’s nice to know that our family-friendly atmosphere and affordable prices worked well for your family. We agree—booking tickets online is the best choice! We’re also glad you found the parking easy. We hope to see you and your family again soon for more underwater fun and special moments. Best wishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: A highlight of this facility is the seal show, which educates visitors on the natural lives and behaviors of seals without forcing them to perform for mere entertainment. It's conveniently located near the Aquaduck boarding area and the Wharf, with its many restaurants.
Hi Tony, Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the seal presentation and appreciated our focus on education. It's great to know that our location added to your experience, making it easy to explore the nearby attractions and restaurants. We hope to see you again soon for more underwater adventures! Best fishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: It was good, but need more varieties of fishes or sea animals, for a toddlers it probably very entertaining but for teenagers and adults, one round is all done. Also the lady who guarding the starfish in the room near the entrance, she need to bit chilled. Overall its ok.
Hi Rizki, Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! We're thrilled to hear that you found the aquarium entertaining, especially for the little ones. We totally get your point about wanting more variety for teenagers and adults, and we're always looking for ways to improve and expand our exhibits. As for the Touch Pool staff member, we have passed on your feedback to ensure everyone has a relaxed and enjoyable experience. We appreciate your insights and hope to welcome you back for another visit soon. Maybe next time, we'll have some new sea creatures to surprise you! Take care and have a fantastic day! Best, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia negativa: Absolutely not worth $100 for 2 people!!!!! We were in there for 30 minutes but only due to them cramming people in there, otherwise you could see the whole thing in 15 minutes. Honestly a safety hazard, there underwater tunnel was the full of people you could barely move and people were complaining out loud saying it was claustrophobic and too hot.
Hi Alice, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I'm truly sorry to hear that your visit didn't meet your expectations and that you felt uncomfortable due to the crowd. Your safety and enjoyment are incredibly important to us, and we do still cap entry numbers per half hour to reflect this. Due to the Mother's Day special promotion and the rainy weather, we did see increased guest visitation over the weekend. If you are looking for a quieter time to visit, mid-week during school terms is typically quiet. You can also enjoy further discounts on tickets if you book ahead during these periods. We strive to provide a memorable and enjoyable experience for all our visitors, and your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve. We'll definitely look into the issues you've mentioned regarding the crowd management and the conditions in the underwater tunnel. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a much more pleasant visit. Warm regards, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: Had an amazing experience swimming with the seals! Trainer Colleen has so much knowledge it was amazing listening to her! All around great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: An unforgettable experience for the whole family! We had such a fantastic time at SEA LIFE, and a big shoutout to Reggie at reception who truly made our visit even better. Not only did he recommend the annual pass, which was totally worth it, but she also gave us the times of the main attractions, shared great tips on what to do, and was just incredible and so helpful throughout. My daughter absolutely loved every moment and now asks to go back every single day. The exhibits are magical, the staff are friendly, and it's the perfect outing for families. Can’t wait for our next visit!
Hi Helenise, Wow, your review just made our day! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that you and your family had such an unforgettable time at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. We will pass this feedback along to Reggie and she will be over the moon to know she made your visit extra special with her recommendations and tips.

Our team works hard to create magical experiences, and it’s wonderful to know we hit the mark with your visit. We can't wait to welcome you all back for more underwater adventures. Until then, keep swimming in those happy memories! Warm regards, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: This is where you go on the Sunny Coast to get your fix of all things marine -they have everything from sharks to frogs, seahorses, octopi, penguins, turtles, seals, groper fish and all between. The tunnels under the ocean are nice, and there is a massive set of shark jaws in that area -sadly, it didn’t say what species they were from. My favourite part was the jellyfish at the end, I always like them. A print of the photo they take of you as you enter was very expensive, as was the ride in the amphibious vehicle that picks up passengers out front, so we skipped those. The day we went (my birthday) it was closing at 4PM, so maybe try to get here not later than 2PM. Decent day out.
Hi Kye-Simeon, Thanks a ton for swimming by SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium and for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear you had a splash-tastic time exploring our marine wonders, from the sharks to the mesmerizing jellyfish. They're quite the showstoppers, aren't they? We appreciate your feedback about the shark jaws display and the pricing of the photos. We'll definitely take this into consideration as we strive to make every visit as enjoyable as possible. Happy belated birthday! We're glad you chose to celebrate with us, and we hope the rest of your day was just as fin-tastic. If you ever find yourself back on the Sunny Coast, we'd love to welcome you again for more underwater adventures! Best fishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: It was such a wonderful experience at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast. A lot of sea animals and we enjoyed the Seals show.
Hi Fiona_JJ! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast. It sounds like you had a fintastic day exploring all the amazing sea animals and enjoying the seals presentation. We hope to sea you again soon for more underwater adventures! Wishing you oceans of fun, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Team
Experiencia negativa: I visited with my grandson on Thursday 17th April for some special time out together and encountered a rude man at the touch pool. My grandson is 2 therefore a paid ticket of $33. He had barely touched the pool when he was told not to chase the fish. When I asked the same man if he could touch a starfish his response was “why? Can’t you reach?” When just seconds before he was enthusiastically holding the starfish for some young girls to touch. If you are over your job get out of there.
Hi Flissie, I'm truly sorry to hear about your experience during your visit with your grandson. It sounds like a special day that didn't go as planned, and I can understand how disappointing that must have been. Our goal is to create a welcoming and enjoyable environment for all our visitors, especially our youngest ones, and it seems we fell short this time. The interaction you described at the touch pool is not in line with the friendly and supportive atmosphere we strive to provide. I assure you that your feedback is taken seriously, and we will address this with our team to ensure it doesn't happen again. If you would like to leave further information about your expereince, please don't hesitate to reach out to the Operations Manager; [email protected] Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you and your grandson back in the future for a much more positive experience. Warm regards, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: Sensational marine life to see and fall in love with. Great educational opportunities. No phone service so download their map before going in at the check in, or take the paper copy. Easy to navigate the venue with arrows. Pram parking at the end in the cafe after the gift shop. Awesome merch Cafe food is not appealing or healthy though the great staff made up for it.
Hi Melanie, Wow, your review made a splash with us! We're thrilled to hear that you fell in love with our sensational marine life and enjoyed the educational opportunities. It's fantastic that you found navigating the venue easy and appreciated the pram parking convenience. We're sorry to hear that the cafe food didn't quite hit the mark for you, but it's awesome to know our great staff made up for it. We'll definitely pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for the heads-up about the phone service and map download tip—super helpful for future visitors! We hope to see you swimming back our way soon for more underwater adventures. Best fishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: The penguin encounter experience is worth every cent. I wasn't expecting much and ended up just loving it. The behind the scenes was pretty cool.
Hey Eduardo! Wow, we're thrilled to hear that you had such an awesome time with the Penguin Encounter experience! It's always a delight when something unexpected turns out to be a highlight, right? We're so glad you enjoyed the Behind the Scenes tour too. Thanks a ton for sharing your experience and for the fantastic rating! We hope to see you waddling back to SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium soon for more fun adventures! Take care and keep splashing, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: SeaLife Sunshine Coast Aquarium showcases beautiful aquatic life, with impressive displays of jellyfish, sharks, rays and seals among others. I especially enjoyed attending the live seal performance, which was both entertaining and educating, making the visit a memorable experience.
Hi Pritesh, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our beautiful aquatic displays and found the Seal Presentation both entertaining and educational. It's wonderful to know that your visit was memorable, and we hope to welcome you back for more underwater adventures soon. If there's anything else you'd like to share or suggest, feel free to let us know. Have a fantastic day! Warm regards, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia negativa: Sadly Underwater World in QLD is a real ripoff. Definitely not worth the entry fee. I have gone to a few Underwater World around the world and the one olin QalD pales in comparison. Firstly, it is very small so not much to see. The freshwater displays are poorly scaped and small and not much fish variety to see. The sea lion show was good but the enclosures they were housed in were pathetically small and so I feel sorry that they have to live in such an environment. If it weren't for the sea lion show, you could probably see everything in 30 minutes. Even if the tickets were half the price, I eould not consider worth the time to drive all that way to see what was on display.
Hi Wayne, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. I'm sorry to hear that your experience at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium didn't meet your expectations. We strive to provide an engaging and enjoyable visit for all our guests, and it's clear we fell short during your visit. Regarding our pricing, we do offer guests the opportunity to purchase discounted and promotional tickets throughout the year. Our standard ticket pricing is aligned with similar attractions. Your feedback about the variety of marine life is invaluable, and we'll certainly take it into consideration as we look to improve our offerings. We are committed to the welfare of all our animals and we ensure their care, housing, and enrichment is first class. Our seals are happy and healthy and our team work alongside them everyday to ensure they are enriched. Thank you again for your feedback. Warm regards, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: Such a fun experience! The exhibits are well-maintained and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Loved getting up close with the sea creatures—especially the sharks and rays! Great place for families or anyone interested in marine life.
Experiencia fantástica: We had the most phenomenal time at Sea Life!!! Our daughters 6 and 3 just loved all the exhibits and the staff were just lovely. Upon finding out it was our daughters birthday yesterday one of the staff sat down and let her ask him lots of seal related questions and even performed a little magic Her day was thoroughly made, thank you Sea Life!!!
Experiencia positiva: It’s very good but disappointed that we were refused entry to the sea lion show (was going to be the highlight of the trip) we pre booked so we could get in in good time, but still had to queue. Turtles? Only saw one through a porthole where we weren’t supposed to be. It was very crowded being a public holiday, with the prices charged we expected it to be a more leasurable experience but it was packed to the max. Could not find any octopus but asked and told they had none.
Hi Lindsey, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I'm really sorry to hear that your visit didn't meet your expectations, especially with the Seal Presentation being such an anticipated part of your trip. We do operate three presentations daily so it is disappointing to hear that you weren't able to catch one. Public holidays can indeed make the aquarium quite busy, and I apologize for any inconvenience this caused during your visit. We strive to provide a memorable experience for all our guests, and your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve. Regarding the turtles, I understand it must have been frustrating to anticipate seeing more. We do have a large hawksbill resident in the Ocean Tunnel, but he sometimes likes to swim out of view or behind the statues. We also have recovering turtles in quieter our back of house area. They can be seen by the small groups that book a Behind the Scenes tour. And we also have a pig-nose turtle swimming around near our Penguin area. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the chance to welcome you back for a more enjoyable experience in the future. Warm regards, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: Lovely visit. Would be better if crowds were more directed to avoid having to run into people milling in all sorts of directions and to avoid having to back track. Loved the underwater tunnel. The 'hands-on' was great even for a toddler. Good time overall
Experiencia positiva: Great spot for families. They have a seal show too. the seals are super cute and smart! The only downside is that the aquarium’s pretty small, so I didn’t feel totally satisfied. Should go early a little bit, extremely difficult to find a parking spot :((
Hi Vân Anh Hoàng Thị, Thanks a ton for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed the Seal Presentation—those little performers sure know how to steal the spotlight with their cuteness and smarts, don't they? We totally understand your thoughts about the size of the aquarium and the parking situation. We're always looking for ways to improve, and your feedback is super valuable in helping us make SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium even better for our visitors. We hope to welcome you back soon for more underwater adventures and maybe a few more seal antics! Have a fantastic day! Best fishes, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team ✨
Experiencia negativa: Had a great behind the scenes tour for my marine loving daughters 8th birthday,the tour guide was excellent. The highlight was to be the jellyfish which we finally found at the end, after waiting to purchase in the gift shop, we rushed thru the jellyfish tunnel and we're perplexed to see nothing. We tried to see in dark windows and tubes, my daughter clutching the expensive jellyfish souvenirs she chose, and finally asked a staff member what was happening, she said "we're closed" it was 4:02pm and she turned the lights off so we couldn't see them as we walked through. This was one of the meanest things I've experienced, my daughter is devastated. We were politely waiting behind the group in front of us and it cost us seeing the main event. That they can't let you walk out first is a disgrace. Really disappointing after a long drive to get here.
Hi Selina, Thank you for sharing your experience with us, and I'm truly sorry to hear about the disappointment you and your daughter faced during your visit. It sounds like the day started off wonderfully and I'm glad to hear the tour guide made it special for your daughter's birthday. However, I completely understand how the situation with the jellyfish area must have been incredibly frustrating and upsetting, especially after such anticipation. It's disheartening to know that your daughter was left disappointed, and I can only imagine how that must have felt after your long journey to visit us. We strive to create magical experiences for all our guests, and it's clear we missed the mark this time. Your feedback is invaluable, and we'll be looking into this situation to ensure it doesn't happen again. If you would like to reach out to our Operations Manager with further information, please don't hesitate; [email protected] Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and I hope we can have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a more positive experience. Warm regards, SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia negativa: Turns out to be quite expensive when paying for a family of four. You can walk through the entire centre in less than an hour and for the price you’d expect a little more to be there. We drove a four hour round trip to come and only ended up shaking 45 minutes
Hi Carra, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet your expectations, especially after such a long journey. We understand that family outings can be a big investment, and it's important to us that you feel you’re getting great value for your time and money. We’re always looking for ways to improve and enhance the experience for our visitors, and your feedback is invaluable in helping us do that. If there’s anything specific you think could make the experience more enjoyable or engaging, we’d love to hear your suggestions.

Experiencia fantástica: Groovy little collection of water lovers here, really well run and super friendly team who were very helpful to our fam. The tunnel was one of the best, and my children were in awe seeing 5 or so sharks in a row, each one bigger than the last. Treasured memories! The seal show was adorable and a definite highlight, Moana was our fav FELL IN LOVE with the jelly collection, a beautiful tranquil space and great presentation, we were all in awe Also hello, chicken-salt chips from the cafe! Happy times :)
Hey Bex! Wow, your review made us smile from fin to fin! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a groovy time with our water-loving friends.

Experiencia fantástica: We absolutely loved every second of it. I took my 18 month old and he was mesmerized. My seal swim was canceled, but they let me know in time, and we still decided to go. This is an awesome place for children and adults. My favorite was the seal show, and my son's favorite was the penguin presentation.
Hi Charne, Wow, your review made a splash with us! We're thrilled to hear that you and your little one had such a fantastic time at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium. It's wonderful that your son was mesmerized by the penguin talk—those little waddlers sure know how to charm an audience!

We hope to sea you again soon for more underwater adventures! Warm regards, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia fantástica: What a Great Day, So Much to See Take the Time & Experience Aquatic Life Absolutely Breathtaking
Experiencia negativa: The aquarium is ok for kids. As adults we were really disappointed mainly due to the high ticket cost, we felt it wasn’t value for money. $162 for 4 of us to walk around for just under an hour & a 15 minute seal show. There wasn’t as many big tanks as we thought there would have been based on the way the advertising looks. I thought we missed part of the aquarium, which we didn’t.
Experiencia fantástica: Great day out with our little kids on a very rainy day. They loved seeing the seals and sharks in particular. I've included two pics of the great playgrounds inside. The big one is past the cafe and the smaller one is near the seals which also had little tables w colouring out.
Hi Rebecca, Wow, it sounds like you and your little ones had a splash-tastic time with us, even on a rainy day! We're thrilled to hear that the seals and sharks were a hit. Those playful creatures sure know how to make a splash, don't they? Thanks for sharing the pics of the playgrounds too! We're glad the kids enjoyed them, and it's great to know the coloring tables were a fun stop. We hope to see you all again for more underwater adventures! Wishing you sunny days ahead, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: We had a wonderful time at Sea Life aquarium. Visited on a weekday & was surprised how busy it was. Eventually found a carpark. It's also shared with nearby restaurants. I recommend booking tickets online in advance as it was easy to show the prepaid ticket upon entry. You can save 25% by booking online at least one day before on a weekday & outside of school holidays. I brought a pram and was able to get around to all the displays. The seal show looked popular. There is a small cafe and gift shop on site.
Hi Katie, Thanks a bunch for sharing your experience with us at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium! We're thrilled to hear you had a wonderful time exploring our underwater world. Weekdays can indeed be a bit bustling, but we're glad you managed to find a carpark and navigate the aquarium with your pram comfortably. Booking tickets online is definitely a smart move, and we're happy to hear you took advantage of the savings! Our Seal Presentation is always a hit, and it's great to know you noticed its popularity. We hope you had a chance to enjoy some treats from our cafe and maybe found a little something special in our gift shop. We can't wait to welcome you back for more aquatic adventures. Until then, take care and keep swimming! Warm regards, The SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium Team
Experiencia positiva: Last time I visited was around 2009, it has not changed one bit. Think it’s time for a bit of a facelift. Even shark facts on the wall reference to 2010, that’s 15 years ago! The walk through tunnel is cool but as everything else very dated and dirty feeling. Hope some money gets put into soon
Hi Daniel, Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We really appreciate your feedback and understand your concerns about the need for some updates. It's important to us that our visitors have a fresh and exciting experience, and your comments about the dated displays and the overall feel of the aquarium are definitely something we take to heart.

Experiencia fantástica: SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast Aquarium is located in Mooloolaba on the Sunshine Coast. It is a popular tourist destination renowned for its rich marine life exhibits and interactive experiences, based on visitor reviews. The daily seal shows are a highlight for families, with playful seals bringing joy to the audience. Interactive areas such as touch pools give visitors, especially children, the opportunity to interact with marine animals like starfish, adding both fun and educational value. If you plan to visit, it is recommended to book tickets in advance through the official website or travel platforms to take advantage of discounts. Additionally, check the daily show schedules to plan your visit effectively. Plenty of car park but it will be pretty difficult to find a car park on the weekends. Ticket price is affordable compared to others sea life on the other state.

Experiencia fantástica: What a great day out for the family. Very educational and loved that there was a constant reminder of what we can all do to support the sealife through our day to day actions.

Experiencia positiva: We visited on a Monday and inside the aquarium was still fairly busy but the carpark was pretty empty and easy to find a carpark spot. Staff were friendly, ticket prices were quite expensive for what is an hour experience to be honest. Tickets cost $44. Personal favourite animals were the seals and penguins.
