Your guide will take you Behind-the-Scenes so you can see how the Aquarium cares for its marine life. You’ll also see our quarantine section and animal food preparation room. An exclusive hand feeding session of the Cownose Sting Rays with their favourite food takes place amidst circling predators of the Coral Sea on a specially designed feeding platform.
