Reviews
“What a great attraction! My family and I went recently and saw the new Penguin Exhibit. You could definitely sit there and watch those little fellas for ages! We also saw the Frozen Hammerhead Shark on display, it didn't look real! ”
“I could have watched the penguins all day! They were so cool and it felt like you could reach out and touch them, even though there is thick glass between you and them. The rest of the attraction was ok, it would be good for someone with small children but I didn't have any with me so I only spent about 2 hours there in total and that was more than enough. ”
