This is a small not for profit Aquarium who aims to provide all ages with a hands on educational experience around New Zealand's marine life. Take the school!

A great place to visit on a Sunday...especially around 11am where you'll meet the famous Octopus who can take the lid off any jar...especially when hungry.

This is part of Victoria University's marine education facilities and is open to the public (check hours first).

Great activity for the whole family, but very small.

A fantastic aquarium in an old boathouse on the rocks. Targeted at kids they can get hands-on, elbow deep into tabletop tanks with starfish and other seabed denizens. Their Octupus feeding time talk is brilliant. Cheap and terrific fun for the kids.
