Discovery marine life with general admission to the National Aquarium of New Zealand. Discover native wildlife, including penguins, kiwis and more.
Discover the National Aquarium of New Zealand with a flexible general admission pass. Walk through the Hawke's Bay's experience and be connected with the wonders of the world and the mysteries of the ocean. Guests can explore the aquarium and have a rare opportunity to observe one of New Zealand's national symbols, the Kiwi. Here, you can also meet Alfie the Tuatara, a magnificent creature over 40 years old, that serves as a living link to New Zealand's ancient past.
The National Aquarium is more than just an exhibition space, it also functions as a rescue and rehabilitation centre for Little Blue Penguins. These charming residents cannot return to New Zealand's wild, so the aquarium provides them with a safe sanctuary where guests can learn from them. Engage with these delightful penguins through feeding and observation experiences that not only entertain but also educate about the importance of marine conservation. Perfect for families and anyone with a curiosity for nature.
Spectators are welcome but must purchase a general admissions ticket.
This experience runs in all weather conditions.
Please wear clothing suitable to the weather conditions on the day.
This experience is located at the National Aquarium of New Zealand at 546 Marine Parade, Napier, 4110.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
