Napier

The National Aquarium Napier The National Aquarium houses a reef tank, a travelator which spirals its way beneath the enormous oceanarium, creating the impression of a true underwater experience, and a typical New Zealand rocky shore environment. There are sharks, stingray and hundreds of fish species along with eels, trout, sea horse, turtles, tropical marine fish, kiwi, tuatara, and a crocodile on display. There is also a café and themed souvenir shop. Visitors can experience ‘Behind the Scenes’ tours, offering an insight into the state of the art technology which is used to operate the aquarium, and a chance to handle and feed some of the animals.     www.nationalaquarium.co.nz     info@nationalaquarium.co.nz     Ph 06 834 1404
