    This is brilliant a must to see
    This is by far the best aquarium that we have seen anywhere in the world and you do not have to go to all of the Seaworld just pay for the Aquarium. Its an old sea freighter that has been converted into a vast number of different size aquariums which house an enormous amount of different fish, beautifully laid and superbly described. Worth every penny or rand.

    Pretty Impressed
    It is a good 15 years since I visited the aquarium and given the circumstances of the last few years, I was not expecting much. We did not pay for the dolphin show (we missed the beginning and new the little one wouldn't last long enough to stay for the next one) but spent a pleasant hour wandering through the aquarium - the kids were absolutely captivated and loved running from tank to tank. As a former diver, watching the Potato Bass and sharks brought back some good memories. We also visited the penguin enclosure just in time to watch them being fed. All in all, a pleasant afternoon for adults and children alike.
