  • Absolutely loved this place!

    Got to view the eels being fed which was thrilling and to see an actual kiwi. They also had a very impressive collection of other marine life from around the world. The staff was very friendly, and I would highly recommend this place.

  • Wonderful chance to see the Kiwis in a well designed informative centre.

    Feeding the giant eels was also great. It was clear the centre is part of the effort to protect the Kiwis.

    Old fashioned but cute centre. Saw the feeding of eel and Kiwi which is really nice. Nice staff. $22 per person - worth it.

  • Not up to date, smells 'old', don't like eels that much, but kiwi came quite close.
