Melbourne Aquarium is the newest and most state-of-the-art aquarium in Australia. Not to be missed is the 360 degree Oceanarium which houses giant sharks and stingrays – witness the incredible live feeding presentations held twice each day.

Also experience the beautiful Great Barrier Reef exhibit, the touch pools, or be dazzled by the coral atoll with its colourful coral and tropical creatures.  If you are looking for something different, '5-Star Functions' at Melbourne Aquarium can turn any function into a great splash!

Whether it is for 100 people for dinner in the Fish Bowl, a corporate cocktail event for 600 guests in the Coral Atoll or a journey for 1500 through the entire venue, Melbourne Aquarium offers a range of stunning function spaces suited to any need.  There’s always something new to SEA at Melbourne Aquarium!

Visitors should allow approximately two hours for their tour of Melbourne Aquarium. Melbourne Aquarium’s convenient location is a just a short stroll from many inner-city attractions such as the Crown Entertainment Complex and Southgate Leisure Precinct.
