AQWA The Aquarium Of Western Australia

I love everything about this place, as does my daughter ♥️ their are so many different species of sea life 🧬 it is truly astounding. The gift shop might be a bit of a leap when it comes to it's prices but the cafe is worth every bite of its food. There are plenty of photo opportunities for the kids and family. The touch pool is a different experience entirely, teaching both kids and adults hands on about our astonishing sea life and it's ecosystems. You can also book to dine under the sea, a dream-like experience with top tier five star ⭐ dishes. The aquarium itself was built so beautifully and sophisticatedly, their are different sections for different types of sea life. My personal favourite is the massive viewing window downstairs outside, You can sit in the seats provided and watch hundreds of different fish 🐠🐟 and coral life living in one massive tank, co-existing and living peacefully. The room is so peaceful and dimely lit it's almost possible to fall asleep. Another "must-see" exhibit is "The mantis shrimp" these amazing creatures have the biggest blows of the ocean 🌊💪🏻 small but mighty and Beautiful in color (rainbow). The service at aqua is amazing with no waits or lines usually, unless you're in the gift shop or cafe. Most of the exhibits are educational aswell so you learn as you explore. They have it all here, it's definitely a must see destination.

The aquarium was so cool! It had a glow in the dark feel to it. My friend and I really enjoyed it, as we saw many different sea creatures such as clown fish, sea dragon, stingray and shark. It was nice to see all the kids with their parents enjoy it so much too, as it adds to the positive vibe. Also a very close walk from the Hillarys Boat Harbour too~

A great place to visit, especially if you have young kids. It's perfect for a weekend trip during the summer. They have their own café, but if you'd like more options, you can walk to Breakwater, which is within walking distance. There are plenty of interactive and educational tools for children to learn about marine life. Definitely a good destination for families with young kids.

AQWA is a wonderful experience! The underwater tunnel is truly breathtaking, and the exhibits showcase Western Australia’s marine life beautifully. My daughter especially enjoyed the touch pools, and the whole place was clean, well-organized, and engaging. It’s not the largest aquarium I’ve visited, but it’s definitely a must-see in Perth.

Really good aquarium with stunning scenery flowing through the plentiful things you could do. Recommended to bring kids for a fun day out, especially with food and interactive experiences near the end of the aquarium. Be warned, could be a bit crowded on some days and times so be sure to book in advance. Make sure to take photos to remember it.

We had a wonderful evening at the dine beneath the sea experience at AQWA celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary. From beginning to end all staff were extremely friendly, attentive and professional. The food was delicious, and there was a variety of drinks available, with staff frequently topping up your glass. The tables are pre-allocated (and are stationary throughout the night) making the transition from upstairs to downstairs very smooth. Overall we had a lovely experience and would recommend to others looking for a dining experience in a unique location.

It’s a nice place for a day trip and beautiful underwater experience tunnel. Much better than the ones in other Australian states , and really great engineering construction with a thick glass wall structure!

Loved the aquarium, well laid out, nice tanks, some very vibrant colours and lighting, particularly for the corals, and a lovely vibe about the place. Some amazing creatures on display and plenty of information for each one. My son did the scuba with sharks experience and it was great, well organised and he loved it. Special shout out to Debbie in reception. She is so lovely, an amazing professional and friendly person, and perfect first contact when you enter. We will be back when next in Perth.
