Sealife - Underwater World
Just down the road from our resort is the awesome Underwater World. Do you have a secret desire to snorkel with sharks or even dive without a cage? How about getting up close and personal with some friendly seals? Well you can do all that and more at Underwater World.
Everyone will love the new Jellyfish Kingdom where you can observe these fascinating creatures, who have been around for more than 650 million years, in their natural habitat. The kids can spend hours around the tidal touch pool, which is an excellent way to introduce young children to our sea creatures.
Don’t forget to see the happy clownfish in the beautiful coral pools, the angry moray eel in the coastal shipwreck, the sting rays, turtles, otters, lobsters, crabs and so much more. There is even a billabong, freshwater streams, otter creek and a coral cove. No-one will go home disappointed at Underwater World.
