Stingray Encounter:
It's no easy job feeding these large stingrays who get quite playful when it comes to lunch time; but it is great to watch! Enjoy this informative encounter and be enthralled by these incredible creatures.
Penguin Feed:
Don’t miss the only scheduled penguin feed of the day. During this feed our colony of King and Gentoo penguins receive their breakfast and vitamins from the curation team. This is a great opportunity to hear about the penguin activity in the enclosure.
Fish Alley:
Join our curation team in Fish Alley to see a variety of marine life being fed. This is a great opportunity to learn about some of our weird and wonderful creatures - from the venomous Lion Fish and hungry Piranha to our huge Packhorse crayfish.
Oceanarium Diver Hand Feed:
This encounter includes the feeding of a variety of different marine animals including Sea Turtles, and a large array of fish life. Our fish consume about 100kg of fresh fish, mussels and dietry supplements a week.
Shark Feed:
Watch as two of our divers, each with a bucket of mullet and kahawai, hand feed our sharks. This captivating encounter happens every Tuesday and Thursday at 2:30pm.
Oceanarium Surface Feed:
A member of our curation team feeds the many inhabitants of the Oceanarium tank by dropping food (including mussels, herring, squid) from a raft. Watch as fish dart at rapid speeds trying to get their share of the food.
